Great lens
Only issue is that it arrived with the lens cap loose against the glass. No scratches or anything thankfully, but I’m not sure how it could’ve come off unless I got a returned product (no tape on the box flap either, but idk if they come with that at all)So as always, inspect your items well on delivery, especially at this price pointAs for the quality, it’s really top tier. The image stabilization works well (I turned it off and didn’t realize just how shaky I am without it), the auto focus works quickly and quietly, the zoom looks nice at both ends and has no warping (as far as I can tell anyways).It is a really heavy lens, my weak tripod is getting an early upgrade because of it, but overall it has been worth the money for me.

Great lens! Just be aware of how the stabilization works for video.
This is a great lens! The pictures are very sharp, focus is accurate and fast with this lens on the EOS R. With the firmware update, the eye detect is a dream to use. The only two big drawbacks are the price and the size. I shoot video so the size and weight are actually a benefit for me, and the price is high but it is a high quality lens.My only other complaint is how image stabilization works for video. The electronic stabilization in the body can cause the frame to move trying to track a person in frame even when the camera is still, causing a very odd, unnatural look to the footage (I am talking about with the normal stabilization, not the enhanced). For some reason, with digital stabilization off and just using lens IS, it still does the same thing. I usually only have this issue when shooting a close up of a person that is mostly filling the frame, but it is something to keep in mind. This should be an amazing feature for photographers because it will stabilize not just your camera but help even with a moving subject. For video I find I sadly need to turn off IS sometimes because I can get a better looking shot handheld without getting the weird camera movements that the IS can cause. I am a hybrid shooter so I love it for photos.The focus is smooth and silent for video which is great. The F2.8 aperture gives a good amount of light and at the 70mm end of your zoom you can get some nice bokeh too.Overall I definitely highly recommend the lens and the stabilization issue is probably a software related issue in how they’ve implemented it to get the 5 stops and is something they could address with a setting added in firmware in the future. As long as you are aware of it, is something you can probably work around.

Exemplary Optics with Room for Improvement – Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM Lens, 5 Stars ððððð
Embarking on the photographic journey with the Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM Lens has been an absolute joy. This lens has redefined my understanding of photographic quality and reliability. However, no product is perfect, and while I wholeheartedly give it a 5-star rating, I will also discuss some aspects that could be improved.ð·ð Superior Optics and Remarkable Versatility: The Canon RF 24-70mm lens is a dream come true for photographers seeking versatility and top-tier performance. Its focal length range makes it ideal for a plethora of photography styles, including landscapes, portraits, and street photography. The lensâs maximum F2.8 aperture provides the flexibility to shoot in low-light conditions while also achieving a shallow depth-of-field, giving beautiful bokeh effects.ð¯ð Precision Autofocus and Image Stabilization: The lens comes equipped with an Ultrasonic Motor (USM) for autofocus, which operates at lightning speed and with stunning accuracy. The in-built Image Stabilization system deserves applause for its ability to offer up to 5 stops of shake correction, an essential feature for handheld shooting.ðªð½âï¸ Robust Build and Durability: This lens feels like a professional tool, thanks to its robust build quality. The weather-sealed construction assures reliability even in adverse conditions. Itâs sturdy yet surprisingly lightweight, considering the broad range and speed it offers.ðð Exceptional Image Quality: The Canon RF 24-70mm lens delivers an impressive image quality, with fantastic sharpness, superb color reproduction, and contrast. Chromatic aberration, distortion, and flare are all well-controlled, contributing to an excellent overall image quality.ðð Innovative Control Ring: The addition of the customizable control ring represents innovative design thinking. This feature can be programmed for multiple functions, including aperture, shutter speed, ISO, or exposure compensation, allowing photographers to make quick adjustments without having to navigate the camera menu.Now, let’s address the areas where this lens could do better:ð¼ï¸ð Size and Bulk: Despite its many strengths, the Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM Lens is not without its shortcomings. Its most notable is its size. The lens, although offering superb image quality and performance, is quite large compared to its DSLR counterparts. This increased bulk can be cumbersome for those used to a more compact setup or those who are always on the go.ð¼ðï¸ No Lens Case Included: Another minor drawback is the absence of a dedicated lens case in the package. Given the significant investment this lens represents, the inclusion of a protective case would have been a welcome addition for safe storage and transport.ðð Slight Vignetting: Additionally, some photographers might notice slight vignetting at wider apertures. While this is a common occurrence with many lenses, especially zooms, it’s worth mentioning for those who prefer their images to be as clean as possible.In summary, the Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens deserves its 5-star rating ððððð. It offers versatility, superior image quality, and a robust build that is designed to last. The minor downsides do not significantly detract from the overall experience of using this lens. If you’re looking for a lens that will serve you well across a range of photographic situations, the Canon RF 24-70mm should be on top of your list. It is an investment worth making for the incredible images it produces, despite the slight increase in size and the few areas it could improve. Here’s to capturing life’s moments with unmatched clarity and color! ð·ð

Doesnât leave my camera body⦠EVER
Iâm obsessed with this lens. Itâs my baby after my babies. It doesnât leave my lens and I never shoot a wedding or session with any other lens. Itâs a bit heavy and weighs on my wrist as long wedding days progress, but is sharp, durable and my favorite purchase for my business.

I saved up for this lens and was waiting for the day it will be in my hand! It’s here. I love it!!! Quick and sharp. It’s truly worth every dollar!This is my first purchase from this seller and the experience was good. It took a few days longer than I expected but I got it. They even reached out to ask about the shipping. It could why we pay a few dollars less for the lens. I will certainly buy other lenses/equipment. They are in Canada so this is a good thing too.

As a professional photographer, this is the best lens to have for any shoot. Replaced the EF with this one. Price was so much better than what they were charging in Oman where Iâm based.
