Product Description

 
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.

Canon EF 24-70mm F2.8L USM - An Optical Masterpiece

Date of Review:  Mar 29, 2009
The Bottom Line: The Canon EF 24-70mm F2.8L USM is the best event and people walkaround zoom lens for a full-frame camera. An absolute must for wedding photographers!
Review: As I have grown as a photographer, I have begun to do more and more. I have finally realized where my "sweet spots" for focal lengths are in terms of shooting. My main passion is people and event photography. In fact, I have started to do a little...

Date of Review:  Jul 10, 2000
Review: After I purchased a Canon EOS 3 body, I found that it would only use the fancy AF mechanisms with f/2.8 lenses (like the EOS 1n). If this was a scam on the part of Canon to get more people to by L lenses, it worked on me!

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2006
The 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...
