I have both and obviously, the 24-70mm is a better lens. However, the 24-120 is not too bad either. Comparing the 2:

1) weight - the 24-70mm is quite heavy especially with a FF body. I bought the 24-120 because I liked to travel light (1 body, 1 standard zoom, 1 ultra wide)

2) sharpness and color - I definitely would go for the 24-70mm, but the 24-120mm is just a shade less in performance

3) vignetting - the 24-120mm is actually rather bad but for jpeg, the in-camera correction on my D800 can do a good job fixing it and with raw, just use lens correction in PS

I would use the 24-70 for more serious studio shots. For more casual shots and traveling, I would rather take the lighter 24-120 as I prefer the lessor weight.

兩支我都用過，24-70mm f2.8G喺公司用，24-120mm f4G係自己買。

我覺得24-70其實唔係想像中咁重，不過可能因為公司用D3S，部機本身都重到咩咁，相對覺得支鏡唔重。但對焦反應、相片通透度、鏡身造工都屬於一流之作，值得擁有。相對24-120mm f4G唔可以好似24-70咁粗用，因為造工比較差；4光圈令影出嚟嘅相感覺上好似冇咁晶瑩剔透，而且對焦會稍慢，失光控制比較差，雖然依家啲相機有變形控制，但由View-Finder望入去，24-120mm變形好覺眼下，唔多唔少影響構圖。但始終都係恆定光圈，120mm都仲有4光圈已經好難得，5倍變焦仲係恆定光圈，相信全世界只有Nikon呢支鏡做得到。4級防震就算係24-70都冇，一般日常生活用，24-120mm比24-70mm方便好多、輕巧好多。但如果工作上需要，或者堅持要影最出色嘅相，我覺得24-70mm好啲。
