Rated 5 out of 5 byNyolia from EF 24-70mm f/2.8 II USMI received this lens on Monday, and sold my previous favorite, the 24-70mm L f/2.8 on Tuesday. I have waited for this lens for too long. I shot all day Monday and found this new upgrade really brilliant; It's lighter, looks better and the photos that come out of it are a lot sharper. The color rendition matches those of my 85mm L f/1.2 and the 70-200mm L f/2.8. If Canon had included IS into this baby it would have been a work of art, a masterpiece. I am sure there is a reason for this; Canon knows better. I shoot manual and don't think I desperately need IS. Moreover, I am learning how to lock my elbows as I shoot, and the result is paying off...I have taken about a thousand photos and every single of them is as sharp as the other.Thank you Canon. I love what this lens does!

Rated 5 out of 5 byBlindog from nullGreat lens. Very Sharp, but over priced and no IS. I'm considering going third-party lenses. I cannot imagine the PRICE of the future 24-70 F2.8 L USM "IS" "I" or "II" when it comes out.Make the lenses more affordable so people won't go anywhere else to get them. You are loosing big time on this issue!

Rated 5 out of 5 bydank from I was blown awayAfter talking to several photographers and reading several reviews I decided to sell my old 24-70 lens and purchase the new lens. Well I quickly learned that evertning that I had heard about this lens was true. Sharpness,color,contrast and focus speed was amazing. It was hard to beleive that it was better than my old 24-70 but it was. The only thing that I miss is the huge lens hood.

Rated 5 out of 5 byMaxx from Nothing Better in a 24-70 2.8I've been using this since Sept. of 15 & my goodness! I've had the tammy 3 different times but the softness was oh so present on each & it shot better with VC off, so I figured why not spend the bucks & try the Canon & guess what I haven't regretted it one bit:) There is nothing per dollar in this range that will beat it bar none:)) Love it!!!!!
