 Fast, Solid, Incredible Build Quality. Takes Fantastic Pictures! July 5, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I now own 4 "L" lenses (see below). I can't think of a single downside to this lens. It is fast, quiet, and the 24-70mm is a great range. On my 40D with a crop factor of 1.6 the lens has a 35mm equivalent of 38.4-112mm. A really nice range. The lens is great for portraits but does so much more. Highly recommended.

The most wanted lense June 27, 2008
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I've used several copies of 24-70mm 2.8L in the last few years. I bought two copies from Amazon. All of them are sharp, fast and accurate focus. It produces high quality images. I like this lense very much and always the first lense in my camera bag.
If you are a frequent traveler and like to do landscape + street photography then this is a good choice. 24-105mm is also a good option, but I prefer 24.70mm because of 2.8 A factor. It will produce nicer colors, bokeh, ... Also, from 50-70mm, you can also produce excellent and truly portrait photos.
For indoor photography with natural light (wedding, event photos) then this is a must have lense. I don't have to say much but most of wedding photographers will use this lense most often.
 Almost perfect June 6, 2008

Excellent quality as would be expected from a L series lens. Good range however, I wish Canon would make a lens with this quality and speed in a 24-105mm range. Perhaps the technology is not there yet. That being said, you won't be disappointed with the sharpness, contrast and overall high quality produced by this lens.

Met all expectations. Note this is not a image stabilization lens. After 3 weeks it has met my needs however.
Wonderful lens! May 12, 2008

After using this lens, I have found it to be my favorite. It is versatile and sturdy. Some say it is too heavy and I don't find that to be the case. It does weigh some but not enough to offset me using it.
