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.

Pros: Untrawide, ultrafast silent AF, 2.8 Aperture, solid but lightweight, fixed lens barrel during zoom.

Get it now while you still can, at a great price! Professional quality at this price is very hard to beat. You can't go wrong!

The 24-70 f2.8L

Pros: L series, regardless of model is timeless.
Cons: If you have to sacrifice beer, do it. Read More
Not exactly an L class lens in my book, but still a good performer.
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Lightweight, sturdy build, constant aperture at all focal lengths, that L 'Pop'.
Cons: Sharpness ranges from mildly soft to very soft, particularly around the edges.
Bottom Line:
Great color and contrast plus excellent built-to-last build quality overshadows the fact that it's less than perfect in the sharpness department compared to other L's.
