 top notch glass! September 19, 2008
I have used this lens with my 1D for about 6 months now and I have to say the images are truly outstanding. When I first tried it out in a shop I was amazed at the fast focus and that was using a 30D! Of course I also was amazed at the weight but you have to have that weight with glass of this quality! Its aptly nicknamed "the brick" for a reason. It is not a lightweight set-up to carry around but its not impossible to deal with. The focus with my 1D is fast and accurate, its aperture is wide enough to shoot in available light, and the images are tack sharp and vivid! It is built like a tank, and I have taken it to the base of Niagara Falls (as wet as that is) with no issue whatsoever. This is about the best all around lens you could have, i think slightly better than the 24-105 due to faster autofocus on the 24-70. When you see the results you can get with this lens, you wont mind lugging it around!!!

I bought this after trying the Sigma and have since returned the Canon to get another copy... The lens back focused between 24-50mm but was very sharp out to 70mm. I'm looking to get my next copy locally so that I can swap until I find a sharp version. Maybe the 50D lens focus tweaking will fix this!!
This is it! September 4, 2008

Put it on my EOS 450D as my standard lens. Incredibly sharp, bright colors and dimensions better than theSigma lens I used before. Same techniques being used - my pictures look significantly better!
Perfect range and tack sharp August 31, 2008
Perfect range if you have a 5D and love the short DOF of wide aperatures!
