Product Description

The EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM is a high-performance lens. It has been developed as a successor to the EF 28-70mm f/2.8L USM, but with a wider zoom range to meet the needs of photographers using certain digital cameras.Features-High-speed AF.-Optimized lens coatings.-Highly resistant to dust and water droplets.-Min. focusing distance of 0.38m at all focal lengths.-Front of lens does not rotate during focusing.-Manual focus is possible in AF mode.-Only lead-free glass is used.The EF 28-70mm f/2.8L USM has proven very popular with professional and advanced amateur photographers since it was introduced in 1995. However, the increasing use of digital cameras, most having sensors smaller than a 35mm film frame, has increased the demand for a high-performance standard zoom lens with a wider wide-angle setting. The EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM lens meets this need. The optical design is based on the previous lens, but incorporates new design features that allow the broader focal length range while maintaining the superb image quality. At the same time, the minimum focusing distance has been reduced from 0.5 metres to 0.38 metres.Improved water and dust resistance ensure that it will become the leading standard zoom lens in the EOS system.FeatureProduct FeaturesTechnical detailsAF actuatorUSM Magnification0.29 Filter size77mm Colour of productBlack Lens systemViewing angle84-34/53-19 30/74-29¶ø Aperture rangef/2.8L Focal length24-70mm Lens structure16/13 Number of diaphragm blades8 Closest focusing distance0.38m Minimum aperture22 Weight & dimensionsWeight950g Length123.5mm Diameter83.2mm FocusingManual focusY Auto focusY

Customer Reviews

Perfect standard lens.
This lens almost always sits on my camera. With a 24-70mm range, it covers most needs. It's very sharp and the f2.8 gives you a great depth of field, and of course is very handy in low-light conditions. Some say that the 24-105 is better - but at just f4, I'd rather go with this as I need the extra stop, and certainly haven't had any problems with it.
