Canon EF 16-35mm f/4 L IS USM Lens Review
This new ultra-wide angle zoom lens should replace Canon's venerable 17-40mm f/4L optic in their line up of professional lenses. It sports a zoom range of just over 2x and a constant maximum aperture of f/4.
Pros:
- Outstanding sharpness across the frame from maximum aperture
- Excellent build quality
- Relatively lightweight
- Reasonably low distortion
- Low CA
- Image stabilisation
- Fast autofocus
- Dust and moisture resistance
Cons:
- Distortion is wavy at 16mm
- Far corners remain darker than the image centre
- even when stopped down to f/16

Easy to carry and great for handheld photos
While the IS on this lens is not an essential item if you're primarily interested in landscapes, it can be very helpful for candid shots of groups of people.
Pros:
- IS
- light weight
- overall sharpness

After owning the 16-35mm f/2.8 for 5 years and shoots a LOT of landscape and real estate images, I was intrigued by the great reputation this new f/4 lens was getting. I finally pulled teh trigger, sold the 16-35/2.8 and bought this, and the rumors are all true: the image quality on this lens is...

Best Image Quality in a Wide Angle Zoom.
This is a spectacular lens! Fabulous image quality with minimal distortion, great contrast and color saturation. It is heavy, but the quality of construction and the resulting images are well worth the price and extra weight.

Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM
Another winner by Canon. I find this lens very difficult to find faults with. In fact this might be the first time I could not come up with a Con for this lens. Initially I thought the only possible negative I could come up with is that F/4 is not enough for certain astrophotography situations.
Pros:
- Landscape dream lens
- 77mm Threads
- Sharp images corner to corner even at F/4
- IS
- Locking Lens Hood
Cons:
- Not really
- but in specific astrophotography situations
- the aperture is not wide enough

Can't afford the f2.8 but still very happy
I converted to L series lenses a few years back and was blown away by the quality of the images and the lens build quality. Having said that, my budget doesn't stretch to the f28 lenses. The f4 lenses are on my radar and im very happy with the results.

Pros:
- Sharp

For the first few days I was dissapointed but later i have realised this is much better for shooting flats than the Zeiss 18 3.5 ZE i had before. It's great for wide angle shoots and ok for portraits at 35mm but I wish Canon would just make lens like Zeiss 15mm 2.8 for the price of the 16-35 4 IS
Pros:
- Versatile, IS is a killer good, distorsion in not bad
- Sharpness is not too bad in corners
Cons:
- I guess it's sharper than other canon wide zooms but not as close as sharp as Zeiss 21mm 2.8 ZE
- Out of focus part seem a bit weird as if they are result of camera shake
