Pros:Fast and silent autofocus, excellent color rendering, effective stabilization, great sharpness at all focal lengths both in the center and at the edges, additional ring compared to EF lenses
Cons:Noticeable vignetting at 24mm, price
Opinion:I owned the excellent Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM II and this RF version is preferred mainly for 2 reasons: the presence of stabilization, useful and effective, and the addition of a customizable ring (I use it for exposure compensation). Beyond this, the new RF is slightly superior to the predecessor EF in several respects but these are, in my opinion, marginal differences. Like all standard zooms, the lens is not free from some defects, first of all an evident vignetting at 24mm and all aperture. In general, however, the performance is really high-level. The colors it returns are beautiful, the autofocus is silent and very fast and the stabilization, equally silent, makes a big difference on a lens of this type. I also add that the optics, subjective opinion, are aesthetically beautiful and well balanced when attached to my R5. Usually standard zoom lenses are hated or loved, there are no half measures! :-) For my way of photographing, which requires quality but light equipment, this kind of lens is indispensable. I am very satisfied with it!
Opinion:I have owned this lens for a few months and, in general, it is an excellent tool. Both in the photo and video environment he has been able to meet the work needs very well. Of course, the cost is felt, and the slightly larger size of the EF precursors is noticeable, but the stabilization works properly as well as the focus. I don't even discuss the optical quality since it is a reference point. There is little to do, 24-70 covers 90% of the work. I have not encountered the problems mentioned by others regarding selectors; on the contrary, I find materials and assembly truly remarkable. Overall, I find it a very nice lens to use, it can return remarkable shots and, as mentioned before, it must exist in the kit of a professional to cover a myriad of jobs. Highly recommended.
Cons:Maybe the gimbal and focus switches are too soft and you risk turning them off/on, other flaws honestly I don't know.
Opinion:Excellent image quality, fast and quiet focusing, materials pleasant to the touch, aesthetically pleasing cleaner than the EF series. Defects... I found an excessive softness of the two focus selectors and the stabilizer you risk deactivating / activating them without realizing it, honestly I don't know anything else
Opinion:Almost perfect lens. Perfection is only a handful of grams and millimeters less. The EF model is in fact a little lighter and more compact (RF gains the stabilizer). Unquestionably excellent optical quality. Chromatic aberrations never seen and flare contained. I point out a very small gap between zoom in and zoom out.
Pros:Speed, precision, sharpness, bokeh, stabilization, distortion and quietness
Cons:Vignetting accentuated at 24mm - f / 2.8, flare, stabilization selectors and focus on the barrel a little soft.
Opinion:On this version compared to the previous one (which I had) they managed to insert an excellent stabilization while maintaining the same weight and size. Many merits including the silence and speed of the auto focus also useful for videomakers. Vignetting is sometimes accentuated and also requires two-stop corrections which accentuates the noise in the correct areas (this at 24mm f/2.8). Another small fetto are the selectors that are a bit soft because sometimes when I take it out of the bag they move. The Flare is there can sometimes be pleasant and sometimes annoying, the little brother RF 24-105 f / 4 on this side is a little better. I tried the Sigma 24-70 f / 2.8 Art that optically found it very sharp but it was too noisy x video and too heavy, I also tried the Tamron 24-70 f / 2.8 G2 and I appreciated the silence but not the accuracy af because at 70mm the photos were all out of focus even correcting with the TAP on R5. This lens costs but is by far the best compared to the others and never fails!
