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!
Cons:the Cost, but worth them all the money spent to buy it
Opinion:It is a lens to say the least fantastic, you remain open-mouthed for its sharpness on the whole frame and at all focal lengths and apertures. It is one of those optics that remains indispensable for life. It has a beautiful bokeh and in combination with compatible mirrorless (for example I have the Canon R6MarkII reviewed here: https://www.juzaphoto.com/recensione.php?l=it&t=canon_eos_r6ii ) comes to 8 native stops of image stabilization, managing to shoot handheld even in those conditions that previously allowed you only the tripod. Also for me it is the best 24-70 ever produced by Canon ... The weight? You get used to it quickly and do not create fatigue problems even after long intense work sessions. Even the flares (which someone complained about) I found them well corrected by the anti-reflective treatment. Truly responsive and fast and quiet autofocus does not transmit noise to the chassis for video shooting. The additional customizable dial is a useful plus to assign commands to the need. Being an L series (badge of the red ring) it is tropicalized. For lovers of night photos, in the light points, it makes beautiful and sharp 18-pointed stars. The only negative aspect is the cost (well 2499 euros, but with Canon's Winter cashback you recover 150 euros) but I can assure you that it is worth all the money spent to buy it. Thank you if you have had the patience to read this brief review of mine up to here. Follow me on IG: @zilaghe
