Review on Canon 24 70Mm 2 8L Standard Zoom by Athit Za ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product, a pleasure to use.

It takes time to adjust and get used to the distortion at the edges of the frame, but you quickly adapt to this. Especially if you are a practicing photographer, and not a fan of reading reviews and comparing numbers. Prior to that, I constantly used 24-105 F4 on freelance shoots for more than 5 years and 24-70 F.4 for 4 months. As a staff member 24-105, over time, even after cleaning and adjusting, he began to miss and soap, and this is very unpleasant to rake and watch later. It also makes no sense to compare it with the second version 24-70 F4. It's like comparing the miracle of the domestic auto industry with a good new foreign car. Of course, you can ride on both, but on a "foreign car" it is better and more comfortable. I shoot a report on 24-70 F.4 II every day and until 24-70 F2.8 II appeared, it seemed to me very sharp and fast compared to 24-105, but now my opinion has changed. For two months of merciless operation, 24-70 has never failed - there are almost no misses. As a result, I do fewer takes in the series, because I’m sure that the frame is definitely there and I don’t kill the shutter and spend less time parsing.

Pros
  • An excellent choice for a stock lens. Sharp, tenacious, due to the lack of a stub, it does not infuriate, does not make noise, and does not twitch, the move is very smooth.
Cons
  • As disadvantages, I would single out only the price and weight, but it is useless to complain about the price, and the weight is unlikely to change in the near future due to the design of the lens.

While I manage manual mode, it is necessary to somehow determine the cause and eliminate it.

Pros: Much has been written about the benefits here. Yes, it's really good, 42 megapixel resolution without flaws. Has cons: If you want to shoot something at night with a tripod, pointing the lens up, you can immediately twist it up to 24 millimeters, otherwise it will fold by itself under its own weight.
