Samples: Canon EF24-70mm f/4L IS USM

mount: Canon EF
format: Full Frame
year: December 2012
max aperture: f/4
min aperture: f/22
elements/group: 15/12
aperture blades: 9 (rounded)
min focus distance (mm): 380 / 200
filter diameter (mm): 77
length (mm): 93
weight (g): 600

additional information: From Canon Camera Museum:
By switching to macro at the telephoto end, the lens supports macro photography, allowing close-up shots of small subjects such as flowers and insects. In addition to offering a minimum focusing distance of 0.2 m and maximum image magnification of 0.7x, the EF24-70mm f/4L IS USM incorporates hybrid IS, which effectively corrects for hand shake, making possible high-quality results with minimal blur even when shooting subjects up close. Capable of supporting wide-angle, standard and mid-range zoom as well as macro photography, the lens enables users to capture various subjects across a wide range of settings.

The new Canon EF24-70mm f/4L IS USM employs two aspherical lenses, which correct for various aberrations that often occur while zooming. Furthermore, two UD (ultra-low dispersion) lenses effectively minimize magnification chromatic aberrations and reduce color blurring that tends to occur at the periphery of a subject, delivering high-resolution, high-contrast imaging performance throughout the entire zoom range.


This thread is open for C&C and for posting additional pictures. Please ONLY post pictures taken with the lens in the title- or start a new thread.
Please state camera, version of the lens and adapter in your post!

I must say the macro feature is pretty cool for such a lens.
But its a fair bit bigger than the native version (especially including the adapter)

All Canon lenses are reported as DT and SAM. It really is a nice lens. I do not feel the need for a native mount lens.

I bought this lens earlier on in the year and apart from trying it on an EOS 60d and a EOS 5d ( classic) to check it was working O.K , I've only been using it on film .

After getting the a7Riv I had to replace the Commlite adapter I had with the MC-11 as it didn't support PDAF .
I also have the Sony Zeiss 24-70mm f/4 lens , and the Canon is a far superior lens in all aspects .
I'm quite happy with the ergonomics of this lens on the a7Riv , compared to the Sony , which isn't an especially small lens itself . So might as well stick with the quality .

I'll probably sell on the Sony .
If I want a smaller compact zoom lens , I've also picked up the Sony 28-60mm .
