Throughout the similar focal length range, the 24-120 is slightly better. I really don't care for the 28-300, especially beyond 150mm - it is too soft and the edge and corner sharpness is non-existent. The edges and corners never exceed fair, regardless of focal length, in my opinion. I've tried three different copies, and each was similarly awful. But if you are happy, who am I to tell you you shouldn't be. Just sayin'
Thank-you, Gene. I read a review that echoed your opinion that the 24-120 was slightly sharper in those focal lengths that they share. Thanks for confirming. I thought that I was seeing the same as you re: edge sharpness on the 28-300. I usually just bury the edges in foliage.
