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.

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 !

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

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

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

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 ..

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.

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.
