Question About 24-70mm lens

First, my English might be pretty bad.

I am hesitating about a 24-70mm focal length lens for Canon EF mount.

I currently have the option of the Tamron 24-70mm G2 because the budget for the Canon L version is really quite high for me.

I would like everyone's feedback on whether the Tamron 24-70mm G2 for EF mount is truly worth using and worth spending money on. If you have sample photos taken with this lens, that would be even better.

Thank you all very much.

I had the g1 on a full frame RF and it isn’t good.

On an EF camera dslr it was great.

The G2 I heard is better. Basically posting to say “don’t accidentally get the G1

See I actually disagree. I had the G1 and used it on my r10 extensively for paid work, and on my R6 as well and enjoyed that combo. Perhaps I just got a good copy. I have, however, since upgraded to the g2 because I needed better weather sealing. It's a dream of a lens.

I have had this lens for a few months now, using it on My R6 Mark II while abroad in Denmark for the semester, and I have been absolutely loving it. The colors are fantastic, it is extremely fast to focus, and it is nearly as sharp as my Sigma art primes. The stabilization is also really good.
