Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM
The Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM delivers the best image quality of any Canon standard zoom lens, but it's also an incredibly pricey standard zoom lens too. Although it features a fast maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the zoom range and is very usefully weather-proofed, the lack of built-in...

Lens Test: Canon EF 24-70MM F/2.8L II USM Zoom
The latest in a line of storied lenses going back to the 28–80mm f/2.8–4L of April 1989, this is Canon's fourth high-speed, full-frame, standard-range, L-series autofocus zoom. The previous 24–70mm f/2.8L was introduced in November 2002, and compared with that lens, this version II ($2,299, street)...

Superb Sharp and quick
I owned the 1st 24-70 f/2.8, I believe I had a softer sample as they had quite a range of variation in them, however this version is loads better. It is almost as sharp as my macro, even wide open, which is unheard of for a zoom.
Pros:
- Sharp
- Fast AF
- Excellent General purpose and portrait lens
- weather resistant
Cons:
- Price
- though its worth it in my opinion
- filter size makes for expensive filters

An Expensive Disappointment
Given the price of this lens, the lack of Image Stabilization is an unforgivable omission. If you read the Canon propaganda, it says that they skipped I.S. on this lens in the name of image quality; that adding I.S. would have somehow made it worse. Iu2019m not buying that argument.

Nice Product
Pictures quality is good and macro function is awesome. I would say best buy for this range. Only problem is, a tripod is must since there is no IS/VR system, can?t expect professional level output tough, auto focus works fantastic in both modes. The price is worth it.

- Bulky
