The 100 APO is definitely superior to the 24-70. The problem of course is the need to focus wide-open and then stop down for exposure which doesn't work well in dynamic situations. I'd like to shoot the 70-200 f2.8L glass and see how it does but if I don't have to work quickly and change apertures then I like the Leica glass. I'm shooting with the 1Ds Mk II.
