Reviews on Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM Standard Zoom Lens
Great Lens
Strengths: Fast, sharp lens, great pictures.
Weakness: None.
What a great lens. This lens has been a favorite of many since it replaced its well-regarded predecessor, the 28-70mm. It shoots images that are very sharp and have excellent contrast and saturation. It's sharp wide open and only gets better when stopping down. The USM (Ultrasonic Motor) focuses very fast, and full-time manual focusing is allowed. I've been nothing but pleased with the pictures I...
Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM Standard Zoom Lens
Strengths: Super sharp, rapid and quiet focus w/ Canon 10D.
Weakness: heavy
My first "L" lens from Canon. Absolutely outstanding. Focus with my Canon 10D is rapid and quiet. Results show good contrast and are exceedinly sharp from corner to corner. Only drawback is the weight; but it is worth it.
Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM Standard Zoom Lens
Strengths: fast focusing, rugged, best in canon's EOS line
Weakness: Very pricey, could use an image stabalizer feature
This is canon's fastest focusing, ruggized standard zoom lens. It's marked as an "L" series lens (for luxury) and is used by pros all over the world. The photos I've taken with the lens are brilliant and sharp. I've used it in low light with my EOS-20D and at f/2.8 and ISO 800 it still takes sharp photos. The lens is a bit heavy--obviously because it's such a fast (f/2.8 lens) and needs so much...
Best of the best
Strengths: Sharp image, fast lens
Weakness: Heavy, pricy, no IS
This the best lens I have ever used. Focus is fast and quiet on my digital rebel. There is no complain about image quality. Sharp from corner to corner. A amauter like me can shoot like a professional now.
Canon 24-70mm F2.8L "We are the Champions...."
Strengths: Extremely Clean, Hefty(adds to innate IS aka Newton's First Law of Motion), Makes girls go "wow, that's a biiiiiig lens, wanna take my picture??", sharp wide, and stopped down, & Tones Biceps.
Weakness: Catches' attentions when in a den of thieves (like London, Paris, or Amsterdam[the weed is good at least]), makes weaklings complain about heft cuz they refuse to be fit.
I love this lens. As an everday lens for the street, Landscapes, or even studio photography working with models, it's difficult to beat. Unless you're looking for 600mm lenses w/ a 1.4x converter to shoot sports illustrated swimsuit edition this lens comes as a close second ^_o You see, as a heavy lens, it will work out your arms and increase your stamina as you have added weight to your typical...
Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM Standard Zoom Lens
Strengths: Totally Silent operation, Super sharp, Crystal Clear, THE BEST lense available for EOS Cameras. NIKON users only wish they had a lense like this.
Weakness: Wicked Price!
It's expensive but once you try it, you will never buy Non L lense again....I used to own bunch of cheap lenses and never really cared about the quality of the pictures. but once I have seen my dad's EOS 1DS with this lense on it, I decided to spend the extra bucks to get it. Then I realized the superiority of this lense.
Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM Standard Zoom Lens
Strengths: Crispy clear image. Quiet and fast focusing.
Weakness: Pricy. A bit heavy. Inner focusing would have been better.
The best standard zoom lense you'll find in the market today. Focusing is amazingly quiet and fast. Excellent sharpness and color. I hope Canon would come up with 24-70 USM IS in the future. Until then, no lense would beat this one!!
A great buy
Strengths: very sharp and fast, wide range
Weakness: a bit heavy and expensive
I think every photographer that considers himslef/herself a professional needs to own this fabulous lens. The pictures come out so sharp and the lens so fast.The only complain I have is that sometimes when I shoot weddings, the lens is getting heavy for me, but overall I love this lens
The Best
Strengths: Range, quality of the photos, everything
Weakness: Weight, No IS
This is my everyday walk around lense for a Canon 10D. Superb for portraits, landscape, everything. I think with the 75-200 I'll have what I want covered. When I bought the 10D the story was this was THE lense to have..and I endorse that.

Canon 24-70 f2.8L - Great, Fast Lens
Strengths: Super sharp photos in low light situations, true, vivid color, outstanding quality
Weakness: Heavy, wish it had a wider focal range
Tires of pictures that just were not quite sharp enough for my tastes, or having that dreaded flash hot spot, I knew I needed a faster lens. The tough choice was to go with the 24-105 f4L IS or the 24-70 f2.8L. While the 24-105 had the IS to compensate for the fact it was a f2.8 and had a wider focal range, I was not quite convinced from reading the reviews alone. I rented both lenses to test...
