This is a lens sharp at all apertures, smaller and lighter than I expected, but still has the L lens quality. i was dubious about buying it as I already own the 24-105mm f4, and it is a lot of money. I like to travel light and can't give up the 70-200 f2.8 which IS heavy. I can always carry the 50 f1.8 to cover the gap as it is as light as a feather. I don't think there is a better wide angle zoom than this Canon, there may be some as good. This has come from Canon limiting the zoom range so you lose a few mm zoom and gain exceptional quality edge to edge.

After using one of these lenses on loan from a friend, and being mightily impressed by it, I made the deceision to add one of these to my camera bag. I initially looked at the second hand market when this new one came up in my search. It was only slighty more expensive than the s/h items I was looking at! The lens turned up a week quicker than the delivery dated I was given and as promised, it was brand new with all it's accessories. Highly recommended supplier.

Possible one of the best Canon L series lenses. Sharp images, well made (dust and water resistant). Image stabalized.It is quite a heavy lens but not so that it is a problem. Pick up a used one for a good price and you will not be disappointed if landscape photography is your thing. also very useful for interior shots where space is limited, eg a group of people in a normal size house room.

Build quality worthy of L-series yet relatively compact and lightweight. I bought it for my EOS C100 and with the its excellent IS the EF 16-35mm f/4L is a performer . A must have for video. Sharp image and no vignetting on the Super 35 sensor.

Have used a lot of L-lenses fron Canon through the tears and I must say that this lens is as good as the best zoom lenses I have used. Very impressive!

Awesome, the IS is top and it's sharp from edge to edge, almost nonexistent CA and is probably as good as the 2x more expensive 16 35 f2.8
