Review on Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens for SLR Cameras - Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM by Eunu ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I use this glass with Canon EOS 7D devices, and Canon EOS 5 film camera. Genres - architecture and extreme sports (the extreme requires a wide angle when shooting Skateboard and Street-, (and, or), Freeskate-Rollers, as well as BMX)). I was pleased with the working suitability at ALL aperture values. I was lucky - I got a copy without back-front focus. The lack of IS is not critical for stills, but for video I recommend the 24-105L USM. (I filmed football with him FROM HANDS, and everything is fine)

Pros
  • Excellent (for a full frame), wide-angle zoom (for a crop, a good staffer). Hood trimmed with black velvet (it has a low reflection coefficient), a case is included (albeit soft). Shooting against the Sun - fine, like all lenses of the "L" series, silent focusing.
Cons
  • Aperture and the consequence of this is too large Depth of Sharply Depicted Space (DOF). Inadequate price from some 2022 retailers. (I do not consider this a disadvantage of the model)
