<p>I do feel the same way about my 70-200 2.8 VR it has been extremly sharp on my D700. I love that lens along with my Sigma 105 macro which is extremely sharp as well.</p>

<p>I had the 40D and 24-105 and got extremely sharp images. As stated before adjust the sharpnes in the camera and shoot in raw. The 24-105 is a $1100 L lens and not a cheap kit lens. Proper technique is vital to using this lens and all lenses. You can also use your live view for critical manual focus and the see what you get.</p>

Look at the Tamron 28-75 2.8 this is a very good fast lens with excellent image quality and is in your range with change left over.

I must tell that as a previous xti owner and a 40d owner, the 40 d is better. It is nice to have a pc sync built in, fast auto focus, faster shutter speed, iso 3200 wich looks like the xti's 1600. You have a flash sync of 1/250 and just a nicer overall package. There is nothing wrong with the xsi either I am sure it is a good camera.

I would look at the Tamron 28-75 2.8 or the 17-50 2.8, a Canon 50 1.8, and an 85 1.8. I have all of the lenses and think all of them are awesome and you will have three great lenses under $1,000 instead of just one. This is just my 2 cents.

I too use LR and DPP. DPP will look better because it is made by Canon for Canon cameras. I love LR but third party manufacturers have to guess at the algorithms, whereas Canon already knows them.

Consider the Tamron 28-75 2.8 it is tack sharp and provides image quality as good as the 24-70l without the robust build quality and weather proofing About $399

Canon states that 1d mk III has the best image quality of any of their cameras right now until the 1ds mk III arrives. I feel this is a better choice than the 1ds mk II.

I own the Rebel xti and I still feel the 40d is a better value at twice the price. 3in monitor, the ability to shoot at 3200 as opposed to 1600, 14 bit will give smother gradations, fits better in my hand, pc sync (which is important if you want to fire the camera with pocket wizards) live preview and a host of new features. I would have gotten this instead of the rebel xti as I waited for the replacement for my 1d mk II. Even with this said the xti is a good camera with great image quality.

It is very relevant, I don't want to guess at the exposure, I want to be precise with my lighting and a flash meter does that.

<p>I have my 70-200 2.8 VR which I use must of the time. I am also loving my Sigma 105 2.8 macro. These are my favorite lenses. I also use the Tamron 28-75 2.8 and Nikon 50 1.8, all of the lenses are very sharp and work well for me.<br>
