One thing guys. the 24-105 is fine for happy snaps and all that but please bear in mind that it's a pretty long zoom range and the optics aren't really up there with the best of them.
If you don't mind a bit of weight and less zoom the canon 24-70/2.8L is priced about the same and whips the pants off it optically. Especially on a 1.6x crop body like the 40d.
that said I am pretty fussy when it comes to lenses. i.e. I sold the 24-70 to go even higher in pic quality. But as a zoom it is outstanding.
