Amazon.com Product Description
Broaden your perspective with the Canon EF 16-35mm ultra-wide-angle zoom lens. Specifically designed for improved edge-to-edge image quality that meets the strict requirements of professional and high-end amateur photographers alike, the lens lets you bring more area into focus while providing greater depth of field. The lens features three high-precision aspherical lens elements--ground, replica, and GMo--that produce even better image quality than the original Canon EF 16-35mm USM lens. The circular aperture, meanwhile, produces a beautiful and natural background blur when shooting at wider apertures. Other details include internal focusing, a ring-type ultra-sonic monitor (USM), and new AF algorithms for fast and quiet autofocusing. The lens carries a one-year warranty. - Focal length: 16-35mm

 Perhaps my most versatile lens. Excellent quality! July 5, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I now own 4 "L" lenses (see below). This 16-35mm f/2.8L is perhaps the most versatile for my needs. I often shoot interiors and landscapes at the wider ranges and the overall quality is excellent. The build quality of this lens is superb (as it should be). The lens is fast, quiet, focuses quickly, and I have no complaints. - When I'm shooting indoors where there are lots of people, this is the lens I use.

16-35mm Worth the Extra Money July 4, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I was debating between the cheaper 17-40L and the 16-35mm 2.8 II lenses. There is a significant difference in price between the lenses. In the end, I felt that having the extra stop of light was more important than saving a few dollars. After receiving the lense, I have been nothing be astounded by the quality of photos taken with this lens. Lens build and Image Quality are top notch. While I've seen the 17-40 produce high quality pictures, I wasn't about to sacrificy the F2.8 over the F4.
For those not needing the extra stop of light and plan to do outdoor landscape photography, the 17-40 will work just as well. If you want the extra stop of light or do indoor photography, the 16-35mm is better suited for you.
Sharp as a blade June 24, 2008

I purchased this lens based on a recommendation from a friend and other reviews I read.
It is absolutely fantastic. From its sharpness to its build, I can not fault this lens. It is a little heavy but it's nicely balanced on a 400D Camera body with battery grip.
The price is very attractive on amazon, as you would see this lens go for around 20-30% more on ebay.
Definitely recommend it if you are serious about your photography.
As expected June 9, 2008

Like all "L" lenses, it is rather heavy. But that is the inconvenience you have to cope with if you want to have a superior lens. My test shots ALL came out as anticipated, fine details, sensitivity in low light conditions, and great colors. No regrets.
This Lens is worth the $$$ May 19, 2008

I use this lens with the Canon Mark III & Canon 40D. It was a bit $$$ but worth every penny. I have uploaded some images to the amazon gallery that are from bright sunny days to hand held at night. I also posted a shot of the milky way if you look under the Canon Mark III images.
It was a bit of an investment, but when you start seeing what you can shoot with it, you will be happy you did.
If you don't want to spend all the $$$, the Tamron SP AF17-50mm F/2.8 Di II LD Aspherical (IF) Lens. This has also gotten some great reviews.
