Aloha Maria,

I have owned the Canon  24-70 2.8 for a couple years now, and I find this lens to be invaluable.  It takes very decent pic's and focus's quite fast.  I use this as my walk around lens and it suits my needs from portraits to landscapes.  The only issue I would think you would have besides the price, is it's weight.  It is quite a heavy lens, but to me the results far outweigh it's weight.  It really wasn't a big issue for me, but it does get heavy when you carry it for any prolonged period.  Other than that, the majority of my shots in my gallery are with this lens.  I really do love it!!

Aloha~
Dave~
