Huge Upgrade

I just upgraded from a Canon RF24 mm-105 mm STM lens. The difference is night and day. I can't believe the difference in the two lenses. I have taken some sample pictures with it and the clarity is amazing.

My first Canon RF lens

I recently purchase a Canon R5 MkII body with a EF adapter. I have a large quiver of EF lenses, including a EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II that has been used hard and put away wet. It worked fine on the R5, but I was tempted with the claimed 5 stops of image stabilization on the RF24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM. I am very happy with this new version, my most useful lens.

They sold it as new and it is open box and more expensive than what they sold me.

When I bought the lens, they offered me a price, and the invoice was higher. Also, when the lens arrived, it looked like it was in an open box. This lens looked like it had already been used. The box was torn and in poor condition. Cano lenses come with some information written on paper. This one arrived without that information, so they're selling me a lens at a different price than what they offered me, and the lens is in an open box. When you talk to them, everything is very polite at first. In the end, they'll give you anything you want.

Best product bought at best price at best place Adorama

Canon 24mm-70mm is the best lens for professional photography and videography. I got this gear with flash bundle at same price that other stores sells. Adorama is the best place to buy and they are good at customer satisfaction as I got price matched as well.

Not worth the investment

I'm a photographer and bought an RF 24-70mm that after less than 1 year had insects inside. Although the lens is supposed to be sealed and within warranty, it is sent to be repaired, which gives me a negative response and offers me an assumption for its cleanliness. It seems ridiculous to me to pay more than 2 thousand euros for an objective supposedly sealed against the weather and after 1 year there are animals inside the objective, and I am not covered by the Canon guarantee. I leave you the video attached so that you are ashamed of the material you sell. At least Canon could have the humility of recognizing that the lenses are not sealed and therefore not worth what you pay for them, cleaning these problems at no cost was the least they had to do, for years using UNSEALED lenses from low-end brands . and I've never had a problem, now I'm inverting it on a premium lens like this one which isn't worth the inversion. I really regret buying this lens.

No Comparison

I purchased this lens last week and spent the weekend recreating photos I shot over the last year using the RF 50mm 1.8 STM and the RF 24-105 kit lens that came with my R6 Mark II. This is my first L lens, but there is no comparison. The sharpness and color is amazing - I am just an amateur, but the gear really can help!!

this is my workhorse lens

when canon first announced the rf series i took them seriously. i went and purchased an r5 with this lens and havent looked back. its fast, reliable, and tough. it does its job with no hangups and is at home in the south dakota wilderness as much as it is in a wedding in casper, wyoming. an absolute must have for the seasoned pro or person about to go pro.

By far the greatest (and most expensive) lens I've ever purchased

By far the greatest (and most expensive) lens I've ever purchased. If you're ever on the fence debating between f/4 and f/2.8..... go with f/2.8. It's worth it. My EF 24-105 f/4 fell off my camera and shattered. I replaced it with this RF 24-70 and I wish I would have changed to the 24-70 a long time ago.

Tack Sharp, Lightning Fast

Bought this lens to replace its EF counterpart. The sharpness on the new RF 24-70 is just incredible. I had my EF version for 13 years and it was a workhorse; I see no reason why this won't live in my bag just as long if not longer. Amazing glass, super fast focus and the bokeh is delicious. It certainly isn't a cheap lens, but for the professional or even semi-professional shooter, this lens will more than pay for itself in the long run. A+

Incredibly Versatile Lens!

I bought this Lens for my R6 MKII and it captures video and photo at an amazing range. The feature of having 2.8-22 aperture makes adjusting lighting and focal length super well! This has been the lens I use for 95% of my projects and I could not be happier with the level of quality that Canon provides with this product.

About Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM

FEATURED REVIEWS

Very sharp

By EDWARD C.

There is a reason why this glass is so expensive. This lens is so stinking sharp that my pictures look so good. Invest in good glass and you won?t regret it

Nearly perfect, only one small quibble

By Daniel

This is the essential and fantastic standard zoom lens. Super sharp, fast and great rendering. My only quibble is the AF/MF and stabilization switches are very easy to move. They don't have the same firmness as my other RF lenses, and I have found my lens inadvertently switched to no stabilization or manual focus with just light use.

Just imagine the creative potential at your fingertips with the RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens, a quintessential tool for the discerning photographer using the EOS R full-frame mirrorless camera system. This high-quality, durable lens is part of Canon's esteemed L-series, renowned for its advanced optics and robust build. The lens's bright f/2.8 maximum aperture is constant across the entire zoom range, offering consistent exposure settings and depth-of-field control, which is essential for both still photography and videography.

The RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens is the epitome of versatility, adeptly handling a wide array of photographic genres. Whether capturing the subtle nuances of a portrait, the grandeur of landscapes, the dynamic energy of street photography, or the intimate details of travel adventures, this lens delivers with precision and reliability. Its broad focal length range, from a wide 24mm to a medium telephoto 70mm, ensures that you can frame your subjects perfectly without the need to change lenses.

Photographers and videographers will appreciate the lens's close focusing capabilities, which allow for a minimum focusing distance of just 0.69 ft./0.21m at the wide end and 1.25 ft./0.38m at the telephoto end, opening up a world of creative close-up opportunities. The inclusion of Canon's cutting-edge Nano USM technology provides swift, accurate, and whisper-quiet autofocus performance, which is particularly beneficial when recording video and aiming for that professional, cinematic quality. The reduced focus breathing ensures that focus transitions are smooth and unobtrusive, maintaining the viewer's immersion.

For content creators who work in dynamic and unpredictable environments, the RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens is equipped with up to 5 stops* of image stabilization, ensuring sharp, blur-free images even in challenging lighting conditions or when shooting handheld. This feature is invaluable for maintaining image quality in low-light scenarios or when capturing fast-moving subjects.

The lens's construction is thoughtfully designed to withstand the rigors of professional use. It boasts a weather-resistant build, complete with a fluorine coating, which repels dust, moisture, and oils, ensuring that the lens remains a reliable companion in even the harshest shooting conditions.

This bundle enhances the lens's capabilities even further, including an NXT Plus 82mm CPL filter to reduce glare and enhance color saturation, an 82mm UV lens filter for additional lens protection and clarity, a cleaning kit to keep your optics in pristine condition, and a microfiber cloth for gentle, effective maintenance. With this comprehensive package, the RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens is not just a piece of equipment; it's an investment in your creative vision and a testament to your commitment to capturing the world with clarity, precision, and artistry.
