The Canon EF 11-24mm f/4 L USM lens is large, heavy and it doesn't take regular filters, but what it gives you is a uniquely (and extremely) wide point of view that would otherwise require stitching of several shots to achieve.
This new ultra-wide angle zoom lens is currently the widest rectilinear lens available for full frame SLR cameras. It sports a reasonable f/4 aperture throughout the zoom range, silent Ultrasonic focusing, with full time manual override and a weather resistant build.
Outstanding optical performance; Unique 11mm focal length; Excellent build quality; Reasonably low distortion; Fast autofocus; Dust and moisture resistance
Slight wave to distortion pattern; Large and heavy due to optical design
For many years Canon photographers had a reason to be jealous of those on the Nikon side of the fence. There was no match to Nikon's excellent AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G ED ($1,996.95 at Amazon) zoom for full-frame SLRs. Unveiled early last year, the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM from Canon ($2,999) doesn't match the Nikon's sexy f/2.8 aperture, but it captures a significantly wider field of view—the widest of any rectilinear zoom lens on the market today. It's not perfect—there's some barrel distortion, and corners are dim at its widest angle and aperture—but given the design, which goes beyond the typical definition of ultra-wide, it's an exceptional performer, and worthy of being called Editors' Choice. DesignThe 11-24mm ($2,699.00 at Adorama) is a big chunk of glass. It measures 5.2 by 4.3 inches (HD) and weighs in at a hefty 2.6 pounds. The bulbous front element precludes the use of screw-in filters, but you can use a filter holder system from Lee if you want to use a graduated neutr...
The Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L USM is a unique lens that combines an incredibly wide field of view with a zooming design and constant aperture.
Ultra-wide field of view; Maintains f/4 when zoomed; Very sharp
Shows some barrel distortion; Corner and edge dimness; Omits filter support; Big and heavy; Expensive
The Apple iPhone 14 is no match for the just-released iPhone 14 Pro, but if you ignore that, it’s one of the most effective phones around.
Great cameras, front and back, Fast performance, Good battery life, Innovative safety features
Design too familiar, Some average features
“The iPhone 14 isn't a huge upgrade compared to its predecessor. But with a great design, screen, performance, and cameras, that's far from a bad thing at all.”
Comfortable, high-end build, OLED screen looks fantastic, A15 chip performs great, Good camera upgrades, Dependable battery life, Helpful safety features
60Hz display, No telephoto camera, eSIM might be a pain for some
The iPhone 14 isn’t much of an upgrade over the iPhone 13, but it’s still a great device and an upgrade for anyone coming from the iPhone 11 or older.
Great camera, Good battery, Emergency features are cool, Still excellent performance
Display could use some upgrades
Apple has given select media outlets and YouTubers access to the new iPhone 14 ahead of when it begins arriving in customers' hands on Friday, September 16. There are two models of the iPhone 14, the standard 6.1-inch iPhone 14 and the larger 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus.
Canon's latest additions to the ultra-wide arena have been impressive. The Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L is awesome and the EF 16-35mm f/4 USM L IS is best in class. So is Canon's mojo sufficient to deliver greatness with the Canon EF 11-24mm f/4 USM L once more ... even on the EOS 5Ds R ?
There was a time when I'd avoid a zoom lens as much as I'd avoid a swarm of midges. But in the digital age, the zoom lens has taken on new purpose, at least for me. Midges, however, are still a pest that is best avoided-especially when you're changing lenses.
It is my pleasure to introduce you to the new benchmark for wide: the world's widest angle rectilinear lens with full frame 35mm image sensor coverage (as of review time) – the Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L USM Lens. While this lens is all about extreme wide angles, Canon has not cut any corners otherwise.
