Review on Canon EOS SLR Camera Lens EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM by Minoru Inui ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

Even though I shot my copy in the rain and it is now 5 years old, it is in perfect condition. By upgrading to a 6D from a 60D, I've noticed that the aperture ratio issue has all but vanished (FF is FF). If you want to portray yourself as a responsible actor, you should only use the RAF for your parallel shooting needs. It's true that you can get ringing sharpness from the fifty dollar 1,4; however, from the 24-105, even in manual mode and in RAF, you can tighten up the color rendition no worse than the fifty dollar, which is why 95% of photographers use the 24-105 (only 5% of portrait photographers use the fifty dollar). Very effective glass; if you're a travel writer, you might not have a choice; it can be packed away in a carry-on. A bag is preferable since the lens will survive longer, the view is not as excellent, and the trunk can be left on the shoulder with a belt. If the picture isn't for profit, you can usually get away with just using this lens. You will have to manually align the zoom and sharpness, but you'll get used to it soon and it works great for video as well. Even the not-so-powerful 430 flash indoors can easily compensate for the weak aperture for crop, but for FF, you won't always need a flash—for instance, 6D 6000-10000 ISO "workers" without any noise at all!—so I advise everyone to listen to his professionals' advice. It's good on crop and full frame, so if you're debating what to take, this is your best bet. Make sure you check before making a purchase. Do not confuse it with the EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, which is a much better option if you need a well proven whale, especially for crop, but look, this is not an elka!

Pros
  • Cutting, cost, adaptability, and stabilizer, though not very dark, fantastic velocity with almost any crashes. That's fantastic for video use.
Cons
  • The trunk is dark on the crop, but that's not a huge deal either, and it eventually dies.
