Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 USM L Lens

BRILLIANT!

The quality of this lens is outstanding are as the image results.

This is the second lens of this kind which I have owned and due to a recent mishap (fault with tripod securing catch) that lens and my 5D ended up in the river. I was quite gutted by this event. I replaced the camera and was looking for a lens as good as the one that went for a swim, and was dubious that although I could buy another lens which was visual equal my original lens, I was uncertain if it would produce images like my original. I was amazingly surprised! The images are pin sharp, the edges of all photographs when enlarged are also pin sharp.

In all, this was a GREAT buy. I am delighted.

ps. I cannot add any photos at this time as I have only just bought this lens, and have yet to down load my cardRead full review

The best lens value for money 2nd hand in 2016

After being superceded by the 24-70mm f/2.8 mk2 in 2012 the 24-70mm f2.8 mk1 is still the same price 2nd hand as it was brand new under $1,400 compared to $2,500.

This lens gets upto 2.8 letting you get perfect portraits at parties and is still a little better lens than the newer f/4L 24-70mm version in terms of sharpness and build quality. This mk1 version is made almost entirely out of metal, but it also makes it way a little bit more. But the feel of this lens is unreal and the best bang for buck on the market right now.

It is my very first L series lens and definitely won't be my last.Read full review
