Customer Ratings & Reviews

After many years of doing photography as a hobby. I recently got hired as the 2nd photographer for a photography company. I only owned a 50mm f/1.8, 70-200 f/2.8 ll & a 14mm f/2.8. Let me tell you that for event photography this 24-70 f/2.8 ll is a work horse. The images I took were tack sharp. I could zoom in and see the pores on the subjects face. I’ve borrowed this lens in the past but i’m so glad to have my own. Worth every penny!

Its has been over a year since i purchased this lens and i absolutely love it for portraits. It is a major purchase but worth every penny.

Paring this lens with my 5D MK III is amazing!! 1) Glass is sharp at 24mm all the way through 70mm 2) Lens construction is built to last! 3) the Lens locking button is a feature that i didn't think i would use. But after having it and using it LOVE IT. 4) Love the RED RING around the lens! 5) Perfect walk around lens and low light concert shooting! Perfect for event photographers! 7) make sure to have a 70-200mm IS II to go along with it! *uploaded photos don't do the lens justice, just visit a Best Buy and ask the sales specialist if you can try it out for yourself!

Best lens I've bought. You can do either landscapes or portraits with this lens and the quality is amazing. Would highly recommend!!

Very happy with this new lens. It was compatible with my Canon 70D camera. Took photos at the beach and I was very happy with them.

The Canon EF24-70 mm F/2.8L II Zoom lens is on of the best lens for clarity, definition and ease of use I have ever seen. I was using the EF24-105 L F4.5 lens and this one has it beat 7 ways to Sunday for amazing pictures. I highly recommend it. Below is an example of what I am talking about taking with the lens

I had been putting off getting this lens, because I couldn't justify the price. Then my 17-55 f2.8 broke, and I finally did it. Great image quality and, of course, that professional look.

I love this lens , didn't want to spend the money but I do like having the best so I went ahead and did it. Do not regret it one bit. I take a lot of pictures of my grandchildren and they are great pics. Taken some recent pictures of some flowers and very nice color. If your thinking of buying , get it you won't regret it.

There are some Canon L series lenses that leave users underwhelmed at the quality and wanting more, but for an everyday lens this Canon 24-70mm L cannot be beat. I was thoroughly impressed at the image quality and sharpness that this lens produced over a wide series of f stops with adequate light. The lens focuses lightning fast. The only SMALL complaint I had was that it's bulky and heavy, but that's expected when you're getting such high quality optics, workmanship, and parts.

I'm not accustomed to shooting shorter lenses (70-200 is my "normal lens"), so I have had to learn about using this one. It does provide very sharp images in the center of the frame, fast auto-focus. Does not have IS, but I have not found that to be a problem. Great lens for capturing wide-angle shots at concerts, although just a little short on reach if you want a close-up (unless you're on-stage). Good street photography lens.

I am an avid canon user and when I decided to upgrade my camera and then purchase my first L lens, Canon did not disappoint. This lens is a perfect compliment to my 5d Mark IV. It creates crisp, sharp detailed photographs, it is a perfect size range when you don't want to continually change out your lens for several photo situations. Perfect for subject and landscape. If you can only start out with 1 lens, this is the one!

Love this lense. I’m using it for portraits. It’s never leaving my camera!!!

Canon has done an outstanding job with this lens, very sharp, great quality images.

A great Lens spot on sharp . great in low light conditions

So beautiful!!! This is my second time purchasing and it lasted me over 5 years. This lens is my go-to lens. I use it for almost everything - to weddings, senior photos, and personal use. Highly recommend!!

I just purchased this lens a few weeks ago. So far I love it. Very sharp,

Sharpest zoom I have in my kit, and the images are outrageously clean. My 70-200 2.8 is still a fav, but now I have two lenses that blow me away over and over again. AF is fast on my 5D4 and tracks very nicely. Very pleased.

I have no complains. Weather sealed. Used for sports and portraits. The colors and sharpness are exceptional. This lens combined with my 7D mk II are really good/fast when it comes to focusing and tracking subjects. It's on the pricey side but it's a great investment.

I really wasn't sure if I wanted to spend this much money on a lens, but it was well worth it!!! The photos it takes are super nice and the zoom function is so convenient.

This EF 24-70 f/2.8 L USM lens works Perfect focuses very fast My Canon 5D Mark IV team up with this lens just like I wanted .
