Finally! A wide angle L zoom that's up to the job

I've owned all 3 iterations of Canon's 16-35 mm f:2.8 L zoom. The first model was okay for its day, and rendered good 'sunstars' in backlit images, but resolution was just adequate for 8 mp sensors and corners tended to go soft with color fringing at most apertures.

Worth the Significant Heft in Gold

This is an incredible lens. I haven't had the opportunity to try the previous-generation models. Even at 16mm, the vignetting is very muted, and what little there is adds to the look of the photos. I'm extremely pleased.
Pros:
  • Picture Quality Speed Build Quality
Cons:
  • Price Weight

The only lens I'll need for the foreseeable future!

Pros:
  • Consistent Output
  • Quick Focus
  • Sharp Focus
Cons:
  • Heavy

very good sharp shotsI

I traded in my 24-70 zoom for this lens, am though my other lens for very good, this is even better, especially for wide angle close ups, it's superb. Obviously I use it with my full frame SLR and it's a great match.

With an equivalent focal length of 25.6-56mm and an equivalent aperture of F4.5 there are better wide-angle APS-C options on the market such as the Tokina 11-16mm F2.8 AT-X116 Pro DX II Lens or the Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 Art DC HSM that can really take advantage of a fast aperture for a fraction of the...
