Review on Black Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM Lens - Model 1380C002 by Adam Worek ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value for money, one of the best offers.

I was really dissatisfied with the results of the first pictures I shot with this lens because, even with the aperture wide open, the picture quality was poor. After doing some research (reading articles and reviews, trying it out on a target, in the street, and in the studio), I learned that the minimum usable aperture for crop-factor cameras is f/5.6. When I eventually upgraded to a full-frame camera, I no longer had this issue, and my lens quickly became sharp over the whole zoom range. While the 24-105 performs admirably in bright conditions, it struggles to focus in dim lighting. The lens requires a strategy and the skill to employ its powers, after which the outcome will be uniform. All images will be masterpieces since the letter L is inscribed on the lens and a red stripe is visible; nonetheless, this is, first and foremost, a tool that you need to learn how to utilize. Overall, I'm satisfied with the colors and clarity, and any issues I encounter are easily fixed in post-processing software like Lightroom or Photoshop. The grip is nice, the optical stabilizer is effective, and the camera's weight doesn't bother me. Comparing 24-105 to 24-70, you can see that 24-105 has a flatter pattern and less vivid colors. The lens is well worth the money in terms of its functionality and affordability, and it won't be collecting dust on anyone's shelf.

Pros
  • Includes a stabilizer, lens hood, and case; has a continuous focal length of 4; and more
Cons
  • Unfortunately, the lens does not have internal focusing, and its minimum working aperture of 5.6 on the crop is very small.

Due to its great popularity, the prices for it are quite "biting".
