Canon Ef 24-70mm F/2.8L Ii Usm Standard Zoom Lens

This is our go-to lens. Top notch build quality, takes amazing photos and will last forever if you take care of it.

I purchased this lens in 2013 and have waited to get some really good use out of it before posting this review. I use this lens on my Canon 7D and my Canon Mark 5D Mark lll. This is the greatest lens I've ever used... challenged only by the Canon 70-200mm L IS II. It is unbelievably sharp throughout the zoom range. I've taken shots that would rival the most expensive primes. Focusing is almost instantaneous. You target it, and it focuses... . The build is solid and strong. It is not nearly as heavy though as the previous model. This EF lens features a zoom lock which prevents the barrel from zooming out while hanging from the neckstrap and also has full-time manual focusing (like most Canon lenses). The lens diameter is 82mm which is the same as my EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM so IF I wanted to use a filter, it would interchange between these two lenses. This is my workhorse lens in my Fashion businesses. I shoot mostly indoors with a Canon 5D Mark lll. This lens works perfectly on this camera. I use the f/2.8 more than any other f/stop on the lens and it gives me great indoor shots that my business requires. Coupled with the Speedlite 600EX-RT they are a team that works well together. The lens has been redesigned and the main result is improved sharpness throughout. The lens is very fast to focus and works well in all lighting circumstances. It is now more water and dust proof. It is built to last. The hood is a short wing design PROS: - Build quality - feels solid but not as heavy as it's predecessor. Zoom and focus rings are a bit snug but they both rotate smoothly. - AF performance - on the 5D Mk III it locks focus quickly. It SEEMS like it's faster than the original which I have only used one time. - Image quality - Sharp and beyond belief. This lens produces super sharp images of high resolution and produces photos as good as any prime lens. Cons: The only con to this lens is no IS. I was hoping that they were going to release an IS version of this lens but in speaking to Canon at the last Professional Photography Imaging Convention, they have no plans at that time to release this lens with IS, mainly because it would add quite a bit of weight to the lens. I won't say cost is a con. You get what you pay for and if you have chosen this lens you are now enjoying the sharpness and quality build of one of the best if not the best lens Canon offers so no conplaint on the price since anyone using this chose to purchase it at that price. I have shot people, landscape, waterscape, fashion, sunsets and sunrises and birds with this lens in RAW and JPEG. It is definitely over the top for quality photos especially on my Canon 5D Mark lll.

It is a brilliant lens; received it in good condition. A bit of problem with canon warranty but hopefully that will sort out soon. Used it extensively on a recent trip and got wonderful results. You fix it on your camera and rarely feel the need for another lens

Very good condition and fast delivery.
