Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM II Lens

Introduction

Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM II Lens

This redesigned EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM Lens from Canon ups the ante for optical performance for a professional standard zoom lens. It has one Super UD lens element and two UD lens elements that minimise chromatic aberrations in the periphery at wide-angle, as well as reducing colour blurring around the edges of the subject. In addition, two types of aspherical lenses are combined to help reduce spherical aberration over the entire image area, as well as through the full zoom range. Optimised lens coatings help ensure exceptional colour balance while minimising ghosting.

A ring-type USM and high-speed CPU with optimised AF algorithms ensure silent, fast autofocusing. Canon 24 70mm f2 8 lens is constructed with improved dust sealing and water resistance, while fluorine coatings on the front and rear lens reduce fingerprints and smearing. A circular 9-blade diaphragm gives beautiful, soft backgrounds. A zoom lock lever locks the zoom position at the wide end for safe transporting while attached to an EOS DSLR camera over the shoulder.

• Large aperture L-Series standard zoom lens that combines high image quality and enhanced durability. Constant f/2.8 maximum aperture for effective imaging in low light and shallow depth of field.
• New optical design utilises one Super UD lens element and two UD lens elements to minimise chromatic aberration in the outer area at wide-angle; as well as eliminates colour blurring around the edges of the subject, for images with high resolution and contrast.
• Combines two types of aspherical elements to reduce spherical aberration, and achieve high image quality across the entire screen area and throughout the full zoom range.
• Highly resistant to dust and water, enabling shooting even in harsh and rigorous conditions.
• Nine-blade circular diaphragm delivers beautiful, soft backgrounds.
• Ring USM, high-speed CPU, and optimised AF algorithms for fast autofocusing.
• Manual focus override in One Shot AF mode allows precise manual focus even in AF mode.
• Optimised lens coatings ensure exceptional colour balance while minimising ghosting.
• Fluorine coating on front and rear lens surfaces reduces smears and fingerprints.
• Zoom lock lever locks the zoom position at the wide end for safe transporting.
