    Most Versatile Lens Ever!

    This lens has been on my wishlist for a while now and I was able to save up and buy this beast finally. This is my go to and most versatile lens for everything. I use this with Canon R8 for photography and video during the day. However for night photography and video I use RF 35mm 1.8 that works really well at night. These two lenses are always in my backpack. The only cons of this lens is that it’s pretty heavy as compared to other lenses I have. But you get what you pay for the quality is incredible.

    Really happy with this purchase. The quality was great and it worked exactly as expected. I use it often for my photography work and it has made things much easier and more efficient. Definitely worth it and I would recommend it to others looking for something reliable and good quality.

    A Must-Have Lens for Any EOS R Photographer

    After several portrait and event sessions, I can confidently say the Canon RF 24-70 mm f/2.8 L IS USM is worth every dollar. Image quality is outstanding across the entire zoom range and the image stabilization makes handheld shooting much easier. Autofocus is fast and silent—perfect for weddings or parties where you don’t want distractions. The build quality feels solid and truly professional, giving you confidence in any environment. If you need a single workhorse zoom for your EOS R camera, this is the gold standard: from landscapes to portraits it delivers first-class results every time.

    The photo and video that can be produced with this product are amazing, I was renting this lens for a few weeks, and so happy I was able to buy it using my Best Buy Credit Card, made it so easy to buy online, pick up in store, and I have interest free for 12 months. I am very Happy with this purchase and would definitely purchase this way again.

    The perfect utility lens and will be my go to when traveling. Sharp images, legendary Canon glass, well made but rather light. If you can only bring one lens, the R24-70mm F2.8L is it.

    I had the 24-105 kit lens that came with my R6 ii and I knew I could get much better results with the R6 using a L series lens. The results continue to exceed my expectations. It is heavy, but the quality is worth it. Photography is just a hobby, but I saw this lens as an investment and this lens will outlast the R6,

    The canon lens 24-70mm f/2.8 captures beautiful stills and footage. I would recommend this lens to anyone whom is looking for a standard lens that can offer you great pixels. The price matches the quality.

    I was heavily debating getting this lens, and I'm glad I did. Over the last 3 years, it has become my workhorse lens that stays on my R5 MkII at all times. The image quality blows away any of the EF lenses I've had in the past.

    Best lens ever. Everyone always talks about a prime lens, but realistically speaking with this lens you have a prime lens at 24, 35, 50, and 70. Insanely crisp photos and overall insanely premium feel.

    Excellent lens, replaced my EF 24-70 with this after upgrading to the R6. I had the adapter with the newest EF 24-70 but this one is way sharper and the is complete with ibs of the R6 makes it a no brainer. I've put it to the test in 11 countries and from the freezing temps in the desert at night in Vegas to the tropical rain forest in Dominica. Hasn't let me down yet!

    As someone who has been taking pictures for years. This lens is such an upgrade from the stock lenses I have. I made the decision to go with this is as it meets the requirements i want in a lens. 24-70mm with an F2.8? Huge. I fit this lens with my mirrorless Canon R8 and it shoots beautifully. Does such a great job shooting in low light. Whether it be video of photos, it allows so much more light to the camera for better looking photos. If you're thinking about getting this lens, do not think about getting it. Get it. It is worth it. I have no used any other lens. (The bee shot was a quick flick i took but amazes me on how well an F2.8 aperture can do.)
