I was expecting this one after the old 24-85mm f/2.8-4D... But thanks anyway <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />...
The distortion characteristics look like the older version.
85mm results look promising (the older lens @85mm looks soft even on my 12mp D700).
The bokeh is not so bad (for a zoom lens), but I'm not sure if it is better than the older lens. That old 24-85mm always surprises me considering the bokeh.
I guess hard to decide until we see the results of the older version...
