Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM Lens

Summary

Overall Rating: 4.5 / 5

This lens does what many pros thought couldn't be done - replace the previous L-series 28-70 f/2.8 lens with something even better. Extended coverage to an ultra-wide-angle 24mm makes it ideal for digital as well as film shooters, and the optics are even better than before with two Aspherical elements and a totally new UD glass element. It's now sealed and gasketed against dust and moisture, and a new processing unit makes the AF faster than ever.

Sharp, nice images, robust lens -- my favorite - by andrevm
Overall Rating:
5 / 5

Pros: Very sharp
Cons: Expensive, heavy
Reviews By
Bottom Line: Best lens for 24-70mm range along with a long term commitment to Canon equipment
Review: I had an excellent experience with my Canon G3 since I acquired it in the summer of 2003. However, after taking thousands of photos with that camera, I realized I needed more flexibility when shooting people and places. In particular, I needed a camera... (more)
The best 4 star lens I have ever seen. - by ncphototrekker
Overall Rating:
4 / 5

Pros: Tack sharp, excellent results. Great "normal" range of focal length.
Cons: No hyperfocal scale, potential for lens creep, and heavy for the size.
Reviews By
Bottom Line: Even though I have given this lens a 4-star rating, I would not hesitate to recommend this lens to anyone. It's a fast lens that covers the "normal" focal lengths.
Review: Twelve hundred dollars for a lens with a focal range of only 24-70mm???? That sounds like an awful lot of money doesn’t it? The question is…Is the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L USM worth it? You betcha! Even though this lens has a relatively short... (more)
Spectacularly Sweet! - by magic_puzzle

Pros: Very quick AF, razor sharp, solid build, beautiful versatility, and great looks.
Cons: Weight (I like it), high visibility, relatively short zoom, and expensive.
Reviews By
Bottom Line: I highly recommend this lens for its fast aperture,focus speed, solid build, excellent design, versatility, and its super sharp imaging.
Review: A few weeks ago I wrote a very favorable review for the Canon 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6mm IS USM lens. The title of my review was, "I'll Never Sell This Lens". Well, I'll stand by that review, I will never sell it, but I will give it away to one of my daughters... (more)

Pros: Image Quality, Build quality
Cons: Price

Review: I have used this lens on my 30D for a bit now. The quality on this lens is amazing and i get sharp pictures everytime. The image quality that this lens produces is great in my opinion. I switched from the 18-55 kit lens which felt like a toy... (more)
The 24-70 f2.8L - by philscbx
Overall Rating:
5 / 5

Pros: L series, regardless of model is timeless.
Cons: If you have to sacrifice beer, do it.
Reviews By
Review: snoboarder has very accurately described it so far. I can only add that I too enjoy the feel and size used on my Canon 30D. I just attended a snowmobile show in Mpls Mn, and this format worked perfect. I have to admit the kit lens 18-55 gets you... (more)
24-70 L lens - by tracykreck
Overall Rating:
2 / 5

Pros: When it does focus properly, the images look great.
Cons: price, weight, unreliable, disappointments
Reviews By
Review: Don't buy it...I thought I would get amazing clarity with a high end Canon lens, especially at $1300. I was wrong--this lens often doesn't give sharp images. Most often with wide angle range, the images are soft or blurry. This happens with my 20D's,... (more)
