Lens Info

This lens replaces the previous high quality L-series 28-70mm f/2.8 lens, with a lens of even greater caliber. The range has been extended to cover an ultra-wide angle of 24mm, which 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.

Julius's Take:

This is one of my favorite lenses to use on a daily basis, the quality and build of this lens is second to none. The focal length of 24-70 and fixed aperture of f2.8 makes this perfect for your daily "walk-around" lens, wedding, other event photography and portraits. If you've ever wondered what makes an "L" lens so special, this is the lens to find out with.
