This lens is way better than my 24-105 f4 I sold. It meets and exceeds my expectations. I always wanted the 24-70 mk I but hated the weight and reverse zoom. now I have a lens that looks like a normal zoom but is extremely light and sharp.

I'm always a little nervous to order items like this online for delivery, since I've had a couple of things turn up broken or damaged. Amazon has been great in the past at refunding or discounting those items but there's always a worry that they'll change their attitude.

I love this lens, I just used it to photograph a firework display and walking around at a festival, i am absolutely delighted with the images. Its sharp and very consistent !! I bought the Sigma Art 50 but returned it as the image quality just wasn't what you get with a canon L lens.

Consistent Output; Quick Focus; Sharp Focus

This lens is super sharp wide open stopping down gains little improvement , Its compact size and reduced weight from its predecessor is a +,If the IS system was included it would of been magic .

It is a Canon lens so I didn't have any compatibility issue with my camera body. The weight is not too bad and feels very balance when mounted on a 6D mkII body. The first copy I received had some horizontal play in the zoom ring. I requested for an exchange and got the second copy in today.

It is extremely sharp and great colours. Though I had a soft corner for mark I since I was under the impression it had a better construction. However, after I bought this I realised it is a false impression. it is well built. The output is amazing.

This is a great replacement for my old 24-70mm. I conduct Photographic Tours in Lake Tahoe and use this lens every day! From Portrait to Landscapes this lens is tack sharp and produces beautiful images.

Outstanding Lens

Wow! Amazing lens! I thought long and hard before deciding to buy this lens due to its high price but I'm glad I finally bought it. It's razor sharp and the AF focus is deadly accurate. I was a little concerned about the weight but it's not as heavy as I thought. I highly recommend this lens!

AF is deadly accurate; razor sharp; great bokeh

Price

Such a great lens to shoot with, however my ONLY CON is that 3rd party manufacturers are including image stabilization. Wish I could only give 3.5 stars for this reason. Image quality is 5 stars, features are 3.5. For the price Canon, we would like you to meet what the underdogs have achieved.

What can I say about the best 24-70mm 2.8 lens ever made Well for starters it has twoasphericalelements, one superUDand twoasphericalelements. This work horse is tightly weather sealed, nicely built, a well made all around lens; Ive had the Canon 28-70 & the 24-70 2.8L ( 1 ) which btw both have a...
