I think Kevin meant it as a joke... I'm sure the MK II of this lens will come with the 5D3, which isn't being announced or released any time soon.
Ah. Had me going. I was thinking that the 24-105mm F4L IS isn't showing up for purchase on the Canon Store website and maybe that had to do with....

Never mind, I'm a dope.

You'd be surprised how far a piece of glass will take a camera body.

that being said, if you hate your camera body, you are less likely to shoot as regularly. so it comes down to choice. And since you shot with the 70-200, you should be able to see the quality you can still pull from that camera with other good pieces of glass attached to it.

just food for thought.
You're right, I know. Every time I think about the 60D, I try to come up with things I don't like about my T1i. Aside from the AF, there isn't much to complain about. I'd be switching only for the hopefully improved AF and the swivel screen. Probably not justified to forego good glass for that.
