Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Lens - Brand New review
It might have a hefty price tag but the Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM performs remarkably well, keeping barrel and pincushion distortion under impressive control, delivering bright corners and not suffering from chromatic aberration.
Pros:
- Excellent optical quality with minimal distortion, Attractive focal length range, 5-stop image stabilisation
Cons:
- High price, Big and heavy, No 'de-click' switch for the control ring
