  | sent on 03 Dicembre 2023 Pros: High sharpness, excellent backlight resistance, very fast and very precise AF, very low distortion, blur simply beautiful... I can say unique given the focal lengths involved, excellent construction, absolutely functional lens hood so much so that from this point of view only its natural heir EF 24-70/2.8 L is on a par with it, the diaphragm is not circular but it is still excellent for the constancy to the various apertures, it must also be said that although not tropicalized this lens showed, At least in the case of my specimen, a really good resistance to atmospheric agents. Cons: Practically none, maybe the sharpness could have been a little higher but it must also be said that, for his time, what he can show today was a very, very high standard. Opinion: I didn't use it much because it covered a range of focal lengths that you need to have anyway but that I, for what is my way of photographing, use very little. It is a lens that in field use, always handheld of course, is appreciated for its extreme maneuverability and for the excellent balance that it showed when I grafted it on my EOS 1n and 3 with which, among other things, it allowed me to easily use shutter speeds up to roughly 1/4 of a second. The blur it generates is definitely beautiful and I must say that this is still, in my humble opinion, its greatest quality; the huge lens hood also, which in the basic idea is absolutely identical to that of the later EF 24-70/2.8 L, in addition to performing its function excellently at all focal lengths (therefore not only at the minimum focal length like those of all competitors who show a shape and configuration that in the field test allows them to be fully effective only at the shortest focal length) being bound to the lens body, and not to its extendable part, it also ensures excellent protection from both accidental impacts and atmospheric agents. Ultimately, it is a lens that, despite the undoubted age of the project, and an honestly excellent but certainly not extraordinary sharpness, for all other characteristics is at least on par, often even superior (see for example the lens hood, the blurred and the construction), to its current counterparts. |
  | sent on 18 Maggio 2023 Pros: Construction Cons: Coarse and bulky hood Opinion: I bought this lens 12 years ago, used it for a period of time then abandoned it for 11 years in mobile. Lately I dusted it off and reused, I was amazed by the yield to TA for its sharpness, closing it a couple of stops remains very sharp, this my opinion is due to the fact that in 11 years I have changed several lenses including the fixed Sigma of the art series. Probably this my very positive opinion about it is due to the fact that I tried it on a camera body not recent as the Canon 5D MarkII, possible that mounted on modern SLRs behaves differently. In the used is a few hundred euros, I recommend it for those who want to spend little and have a lot of yield. |
  | sent on 20 Marzo 2020 Pros: construction - focal excursion - solidity Cons: weight and light Opinion: Optics I had for a couple of years in my kit, slightly cooler in yield than the various 24-70. What to say, a professional lens and on the full frame sensor from the maximum. I found it extremely correct and sharp at all focal points and diaphragms, especially from 4 and up. It is worth the expense and for the costs it has in the used market almost I buy it back. Obviously it has the defect of a doublet that on some specimens dulls, not on mine fortunately, and the fact that spare parts are impossible. |
 | sent on 01 Novembre 2019 Pros: Robustness, brightness, sharpness! Cons: Considering the modern competition... NO one, it's always ahead of so many lenses today! Opinion: Inherited from my dad, former photographer, once you attached it to the machine body you wouldn't take it off anymore... and not because of hereditary nostalgia, but because of its f.2.8! On photostreet is one of the best. With my 80D, he doesn't miss a beat... I'd like to one day try it on an FF... however, there is still a lens that makes a difference... especially when we have little light! If you find it used, you won't let it get away! |
 | sent on 20 Giugno 2019 Pros: GREAT GOAL ETC. ALL OK Cons: GOES BEAUTIFULLY ON THE PROFESSIONAL Opinion: It's an IMPORTANT to the AdmiralTy CANON EOS 1 D MARK 2 ETC... LASCIA WITHOUT THE TIME FOR THE IMAGE QUALITY , IN Fact, HOW TO VERY OTTICHE OF HIGH QUALITy NOT TO BE GOOD TO CAMERAS NOT PROF. THE USE WITH A 5D THE MESSE IN VERY CASI RESULT INDECISA, BUT NOT DIPENDEN OF THE OPTICAL BUT THE ECONOMIC SYSTEM ADOPTED OF THE CANON FOR THESE CAMERAS, IF INSTEAD the US FOR SUNA 1D MARK 2 O 1DS MARK2 O 1DS MARK 3 ETCE... is A SCHEGGIA AND OF ABSOLUTE |
 | sent on 20 Giugno 2019 Pros: Current purchase price, construction, yield from L. Cons: Knowing what you do nothing Opinion: Really amazed. Having found a used specimen, in excellent condition and not far from home; I tried. Having not had the opportunity to test the latest models, I refrain from making comparisons. The last two times I spent that amount I regretted after a little of the purchases made. I heard many, rightly, warn about the lack of spare parts: that specimen looked new and after trying it for half an hour I took it home with me. I have even older lenses, which kept with regard have never given me boredom (it is always true that you defy fate, I do not deny it, but it is with regard to all purchases without guarantees whatsoever). A lens with infinite versatility, but you pay by weight. Incredible yield and blurry for a zoom, I had never seen anything like it. Sharp and bright enough. I was fascinated by the rendering on the canvas side, leaving me in front of beautiful portraits. The rendering of the colors seemed to me peculiar, it has something dated; like the lens of the rest, which has more years than me. I highly recommend it to anyone who finds a well-kept specimen and who has the opportunity to try it out. |
 | sent on 04 Giugno 2018 Pros: Construction, brightness, sharpness, colors, blurry, AF precision, L-series yield, to date stands up well with successors Cons: for the age he has practically none. Opinion: I needed a zoom to use for events and ceremonies, obviously with a great opening but didn't want to spend a lot of capital... So I decided to buy this "veteran" of the L Canon series zooms... what to say, excellent construction, fluid and very robust rings, for large hands can be very comfortable, the lampshed then does its duty really well. From a technical point of view it is already sharp enough at 2.8 although in post I still have to increase its value a little, I expected a much sharper and more decisive flare resistance, especially on values of 28 and 35 millimeters, but in post production you can recover ... little distortion and in my opinion an excellent yield even on the edges, the colors are really excellent and faithful to reality, even if they remain stationary to what were analog machine bodies and perhaps the first digital ... for those who want to take home a bright L series zoom all do I really recommend it to everyone ! |
 | sent on 16 Novembre 2017 Pros: Constructive quality, sharpness, speed of focus, good focal excursion, no excess, Splendid bokeh. Cons: Slight loss of sharpness up to diaphragm 4, lack of spare parts, weight. Opinion: An inescapable handyman-friendly design goal. with loose, saturated, well contrasted colors, it returns a very nice blur and sharpness at all the best focal points diaphragming a bit, I've been able to compare it with the 24/70 I and in my opinion it is slightly better even if it does not reach 24mm I do not feel the pain of the pain because there is no risk of distortion and eberration of the image with a 28 that is practically everything.rnProved both on old eos5D that on eos 6D diaphragm on 4 returns magnificent images! rnConsiglible if paid the right today under £ 400 if in good condition it is the best purchase for a standard zoom Canon.rnvoto 9.5 only for a slight lack of clarity up to f4 otherwise 10 |
 | sent on 27 Ottobre 2016 Pros: build quality, 2.8 fixed, accurate colors, bokeh Cons: no spare parts, weight Opinion: I've had it for a very short time available and it was love at first sight: impeccable build quality. It returns true colors, saturated, well contrasted, balanced. Beautiful bokeh. Unfortunately, one of the lenses of the optical unit was slightly opaque and I had to send back (in the bad luck I have had the good fortune to meet an honest person). Now I bought a lot less a Sigma 17-50 f / 2.8 EX DC OS HSM ... let ', here on the site we all speak well ... VOTE 9.5 |
 | sent on 19 Febbraio 2016 Pros: sharpness, build quality Cons: little wide angle, old age Opinion: Objective standards of L-series, it behaves exactly as you would expect from a lens like that. outstanding optical performance, despite his age, bright, crystal clear, with a fast and accurate AF. The 28mm is a bit 'narrow at times, but they guarantee freedom from bias. It is located at far lower prices than the newest brothers (24-70), if we do not worry too much about the unavailability of spare parts |
 | sent on 15 Luglio 2014 Pros: simply tutto.ghiere comfortable, fluid, beautiful colors, great blurred .. my copy up and not just the 24-70 old who had, in distortion and focus. Cons: Minimum focus distance of 50 cm, a bit heavy, but for me it is not a problem in fact makes it more stable and balanced with canon 5d III.forse a bit sensitive .. af is not lightning but it is more than enough .. Opinion: Accustomed now and love the new 24-70 f 2.8 II that I use in all the ceremonies and events .. I decided to buy this context as a forklift in case of failure of the other or to lend my shoulder .. I had opted For Sigma 35 f 1.4 but I soon realized that the fixed ceremonies and events made me miss so many shots and shots .. first of all the fact from 28 mm is not a disadvantage but gives photos straight, almost perfect square, nothing to do with the problems of deformation and curvature of field of the old 24-70 that I had .. another thing is lighter than the 24-70 old .. and I noticed that my copy is even sharper 24 -70 old .. I was not expecting an optical cosi.è amazing, all right. Highly recommended .. |
 | sent on 30 Luglio 2013 Pros: Quality, as far as I'm concerned already very good even af ??2.8 Cons: Old age and the risk that assistance should go in and not get the parts Opinion: I purchased-used - a year ago (August 2012) this fantastic lens and by the time I use it on a small formats (Canon 50D). Already at first glance you see the second of the feeling of strength and reliability that can give you an objective "L" series. RnHa considerable weight, but it is taken into account. Even at full aperture (f 2.8) as far as I file produces beautiful, with a great cromacità and sharpness. The blur is very pleasant. It 's my lens tuttofare.rnNon I can compare it with his successors 24-70 I and II, but I can compare it with the Tamron 28-75 f 2.8 which, although honest does not come close to Canon. The weight is quite different, the autofocus motor is better to Tamron, although not shine for speed, especially in low-luce.rnTirando sums, it is a great lens, if you can buy at a good price is to be taken, the risk is that it does not break because (they say) that there are more spare parts. |
 | sent on 18 Ottobre 2011 Pros: Colors, fast AF and accurate, beautiful blur "creamy", brightness, strength, resistance to flare, lens hood effectively. Cons: Sharpness is not high (good for F4 to F8 excellent), size, weight, focal range is not very extensive, not weather sealed. Opinion: I have a copy of this lens intake at a flea market. 5Dmark2 of sharpness is more than fair to all opening and rises to more than good closing a bit. ' Solid lens, beautiful colors, good focus, good quality even at the edges, not very extensive but usable focal range. Overall a lens sincere and reliable. If it is found to unbuon price is an attractive all-rounder on FF. |
