135cz or 135stf but these are way off your original intention.. one for sharpness and the other for bokeh.. :sweat:

24-70 & 16-35 shd not be an issue with non-ff body. But among the, 2 I think 24-70 will more practical. since you already have 10-20 for wide.

Try not to get duplicating/overlapping zoom lens if possible.

Focal length for 135mm on Crop factor is way too long, i suggest 85mm instead. Shooting style also 1 of the factor for you to make decision, ppl like Ronnie only shoot half body 135mm no problem, if shoot full body.. hmmmm better get the 85mm on crop factor. If like to shoot half body & no problem with Manual focus.. STF :P.

Since you already have the 10-20mm and 70-300mm I would say go for the 24-70mm to fill in the gap.

I will say CZ 16-80. Is 24-70 wide enough on your camera. Having the range you required in different lens is one thing, but do you want to keep swapping lens during a photo shoot ?

An example, if you like to shoot wide and keep using the 15mm to 50mm focal length, it means you will have to keep changing from 10-20 lens and 24-70 lens. At the end, will have to ask yourself what range do you use often ?

If you like bokeh, FF and large aperture prime lens will be the way to go.
