This 16-35mm zoom lens is a high-quality glass that allows you to capture a wide angle and give you a hint of a wrap around look of a room at the 16mm and a sharp 35mm capture all in one lens. One of my favorite lens to carry in my bag, as an event photographer.

Great for the C100. Perfect all around lens for C100 tight shots and wide shots. Use it for 5D close up food photos too!

First and foremost, I LOVE Adorama. They are a great company to purchase products. I have purchased numerous products and have been completely satisfied on how wonderful they keep me in the loop on my item, from shipping to delivery. I even had a delay with a product and they informed me right away. NOW about the lens, its exactly as it states, a great lens, i take a lot of landscape photography pics and this lens is perfect. Its great in low light situations as well. if you can spend a little more money on a lens and do quite a bit of landscape photography, this lens is the way to go!

Much sharper than I expected. Has all I could ask for in a super wide lens. Looking forward to shooting the milky way with it once it reappears.

Versatile lens that I wanted for group shots and landscapes. Just got it so will be using the heck out of it to see what else I'm surprised it can do. I consider it a must have in my group of lenses.

I am the wacko that owns both the 16-35mm f/4L and 2.8/L. They're totally different lenses though - the f/2.8L is obviously fast and has a nice-ish bokeh for a lens so wide. I use it as an event lens generally and it's terrific even if it's a little silly-looking. If I were better at what I do we would call it "journalistic-grade" for both its speed and "center-centeric" focus (ever think you would see see that in print?). The 16-35mm f/4L version is sharper everywhere and has far less distortion in my post-processing experience, so it's lovely for architecture and interiors. My copy is happiest between f/8 and f/11 so there's no reason to pay twice the price unless you have action to stop. If you have an event to shoot and it's "2.8 and Go," this is a great addition. You're paying the price to say "No!" to ISO - a cheaper (but crummier) way to buy a stop. I salute you.

The Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM lens is the highest-quality ultra wide-angle zoom lens Canon makes. Designed to meet the exacting demands of professional photographers, the lens offers fast autofocus, rugged construction, and best-in-class optical performance. Canon has added three high-precision aspherical elements to improve edge-to-edge image quality, upgraded its autofocus motor and AF algorithms for faster and quieter focus, and rounded the aperture ring for pleasing bokeh.
Why buy the Canon 16-35mm f/2.8L II
1. Outstanding glass: The lens consists of three high-precision aspherical glass elements, each of which is made differently (ground, replica and GMO) to improve different aspects of image quality.
2. Precise autofocus: A ring-type Ultrasonic motor (USM) works quickly and quietly, and works with the predictive tracking feature. Full-time manual focus override is possible even when shooting in AF mode.
3. Brilliant Bokeh: The circular aperture diaphragm produces natural specular highlights and pleasing, creamy out-of-focus areas.
4. It's great for low light photography. Thanks to its maximum aperture of f/2.8, which remains the same throughout the zoom range, the Canon 16-35mm f/2.8L II is a great low-light lens.
5. Included hood: A petal-type lens hood blocks side lighting to reduce flare and glare.
