It's a learning experience first and foremost.

So far I'm going to go with the Canon 60D body and the 24-105 f/4 L USM but thinking of just getting both that and the 24-70 f/2.8 L USM if I can't decide which is better indoors. The 24-70 f/2.8 has no stabilization but is a faster lens. The 24-105 f/4 has the IS which should allow you to shoot in less light anyways with longer exposures - am I correct in that? Throw in some strobes and what really is the all around best choice?
