<p>Mark thank you. I hadn't paid any attention to the camera as yet and your right it's a 60D.<br> I will stay with the collective advice and acquire a 24-105 L and use it on my T2i as I had excellent results with that combination earlier this year.<br> Don't really want to have to upgrade to a new body at the same time as a new lens.</p>

<p>I want to thank you all for the information and insight you have shared I very much appreciate your taking the time.<br> What I should mention is that my son bought a 6D that came with the EF-S 18-200 a couple of years ago. After using it for a while he seemed to just use his iPhone camera. This past summer he left the 6D and lens with me and told me to use them. I did take the lens to Europe early September and used it with my trusty T2i but not on aircraft photography that is far more demanding than sight seeing.<br> I have decide to start using the 6D and buy the EF-24-105.David your last paragraph was prophetic. Now where can I find the best price for a new first generation EF 24-105. Thanks again everyone. Ed<br> Ed</p>

<p>Would welcome advice as to which lens would best suit my needs for plane spotting. Have found my EF 70- 200 1:4 L 70 mm isn't wide enough to full frame the new large aircraft.<br> I do have the use of my sons EF-S 18-200 which I have used on non aircraft subjects with very good results but have also used a friends EF 24-105 on aircraft with excellent results.<br> Question is should I stay put with my son's borrowed lens or buy the current version of the EF 24-105?<br> I am hesitant to spring for the upgraded EF-105 ll based on it's being only marginally improved and with more weight, length and cost.<br> I welcome any and all comments.<br> Thanks.</p>
