Pros: Everything but cost and weight

Cons: Weight in the first place, price (obviously as an absolute value, not in relation to quality)

Opinion: A few years ago I went from apsc to FF.... With this passage I had lost the habit of "light". The 2.8 is a pleasure, fast focus, stellar quality, incredible sharpness, little distortion and vignette pulls practically absent. Even shooting "in a hurry" is difficult to miss the shot. But it is the comment of a "country" amateur.

Pros: Homogeneous sharpness over the entire format and over the entire focal range, exceptional resolution, build quality, stabilization, reduced distortion, excellent flare resistance.

Cons: the selling price

Opinion: I owned the legendary EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L III USM which is still a reference lens for Canon wide anglers. This RF manages to do slightly better and in addition it is stabilized with an extra millimeter on the wide-angle side. Impeccably built, like all RF L has a customizable bezel and is tropicalized. It was immediately love at first sight repaid by wonderful files and rich in details. The flares are very contained, the vignetting normal for the focal length of the lens that however disappears by activating the correction in the camera. It does not regret the best fixed in the house and solves the sensor of the R5 in a great way.

Pros: Excellent containment of all issues related to the range of focal lengths considered. Consistent performance and sharpness throughout the format. Effective stabilization. Build quality.

Cons: None in particular, apart from the not indifferent cost.

Opinion: Canon in previous versions, of the counterpart for SLR (to be precise the 16-35 f2.8), had failed in the intent to design and create an optics that did not arouse strong perplexities, which notoriously led users to prefer the cheapest and least bright version: the f4 which, in many respects, was more performing. Now it can be said, indeed, that the ghosts of the past are behind us and that this lens surprises in every respect considered. Moreover, the software for correcting distortion, aberration etc. works great in the car, without considering that, unlike its predecessor, this one is also stabilized here. Amazing both sharpness and contrast: you have the feeling that these RF optics have been designed to solve, in perspective, increasingly dense sensors. The bokeh, then, is a very pleasant surprise, considering that we are dealing with a wide angle.

Pros: Focal length, sharpness, stabilization

Cons: only the price

Opinion: I have this lens paired with the R5 since September 2021, I have not used it very much but it is really fantastic, a sharpness never seen before in a UWA zoom (I came from the excellent 16-35 F4 L IS). The extra millimeter on the wide-angle side is very useful and the stabilization very effective. The only negative note is the price, but I do not think there are similar wide angles on the market

Pros: Sharpness, stabilization, build quality

Cons: Hood not always effective

Opinion: Canon in this perspective has included all the know-how related to the three editions of the EF 16-35/2.8 and the result can be seen! The RF 15-35/2.8 is a practically perfect lens if it were not for the excessive vignetting, however easily corrected in the car or recoverable in PP. I keep it practically always hooked to the R6 with which it achieves an excellent combination. It is an L series and as soon as it is put to work it does not betray expectations. The hood is not so effective with strongly side lights, sometimes you notice unwanted reflections and/or ghost images. Unfortunately, the price is still very high.
