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

Improved mechanical structure

The mechanical structure of the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L mkII lens has been improved to offer enhanced zoom durability and greater shake and shock resistance within the lens barrel.

More colour, less ghosting

Its optimized lens coatings help ensure good colour balance whilst minimising ghosting.

Compact lens size

The size of the lens has been reduced by 10mm compared to the previous model, providing convenience and handling in everyday use.

Clean design, clean lens

A Zoom Lock lever also enables users to lock the zoom position at the extreme wide end to prevent damage to the lens in transit, while a water and dust proof construction enables users to continue shooting in harsh conditions. The fluoride coatings on the front and rear lens also reduce fingerprints and smearing.

Features

• EF Mount L-Series Lens
  
• ApertureAPERTUREAperture, shutter speed and ISO form what is known as the exposure triangle in photography. Aperture refers to an opening inside the lens, similar to the iris of your eye, that changes in diameter to control the amount of light that enters a camera. Aperture is expressed in f-stops: the lower the number, the larger the aperture, e.g. f/1.4 is larger than f/8. A larger (or wider) aperture allows more light to pass through the lens to the sensor (film) as a picture is taken, particularly useful in low-light conditions. A larger aperture also produces a shallower depth-of-field, and thus more background blur. Range: f/2.8-22
