Description

L9) Canon 24-105Mm F/4 L Is Usm Lens. The L-Series Is Canon'S Flagship Professional Lens Range, Representing The Best In Precision- Designed Ef Optics. L-Series Lenses Combine Superior Performance With Superlative Handling, And Are Resistant To Dust And Moisture. The Ef 24-105Mm F/4L Is Usm Features Canon'S Three-Stop Image Stabilizer (Is), Making It Ideal For Handheld Work. Is Permits The Use Of Shutter Speeds Up To Three Stops Slower Than Normal, With No Perceptible Increase In Image Blur From Camera Shake. E7Magnification - Extension Tube EF25 II - ¹ Only compatible at tele. From the Manufacturer Dust and moisture resistant and incorporating Canon's very finest standards of precision optics, the EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM is designed for reportage, event, travel, and celebrity photographers looking for a lightweight and maneuverable lens with minimal image quality compromise. Complementing the EF 17-40mm f4L USM and EF 70-200mm f4L USM, the lens completes Canon's f4L-series zoom lens range. These lenses are designed for professional photographers requiring a light zoom lens with a fixed aperture throughout the zoom range. For outstanding camera-shake reduction, Image Stabilizer allows shutter speeds of 3 stops slower than would otherwise be possible, with no perceptible increase in image blur.The L-series is Canon's flagship professional lens range, designed to include outstanding image performance, ultimate operability, and weather resistance. The EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM offers a lightweight alternative to the renowned EF 24-70mm f2.8L USM.Image Stabilizer Image Stabilizer (IS) dramatically reduces image blur caused by camera shake. Gyro sensors detect unwanted vibrations, triggering the corresponding movement of a correcting lens group perpendicular to the optical axis. This alters the light path, returning the image to its correct position on the sensor or film plane.The 3-stop advantage means that photographers normally shooting a 105mm lens handheld at 1/125 second can obtain a shake free result with a shutter speed as low as 1/15 second, for vastly extended options in low light conditions.Superb autofocus The ring-type USM motor found in the EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM employs ultra-sonic frequency vibrations to drive autofocus with unrivalled speed and near-silent operation. A powerful CPU and improved AF algorithm contribute to speed performance. Good holding torque stops the lens with precision and accuracy, the instant it arrives at the correct focus point and without overshoot. Photographers can choose manual focus instantly and at any time simply by moving the manual focus ring without first having to switch out of autofocus mode.Constant f4 aperture from 24 to 105mm The EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM offers the highest possible optical quality with no change in aperture over the full focal range of the lens. This allows photographers to set exposure at the widest aperture and zoom all the way through to 105mm without having to vary the shutter speed. It is the perfect lens for professional photographers looking for a lightweight and extended zoom alternative to its EF 24-70mm f2.8L USM counterpart. The lens employs an almost perfectly circular barrel aperture, helping create attractive, defocused backgrounds.Image quality To limit lens size and improve image clarity over the total image area, an Ultra-Low Dispersion glass (UD) element is used to eliminate the secondary chromatic aberrations that otherwise reduce sharpness and introduce color fringing. Aspherical lens elements correct spherical aberration for crisp, high- contrast, corner-to-corner quality. By optimizing Super Spectra lens coatings and lens element shaping, Canon's engineers have been effective in suppressing flare and ghosting--more prone to occur with digital cameras due to reflection off the image sensor. By increasing light absorption, coatings reduce reflections off lens element surfaces to deliver crisp, undistorted images with natural color balance.EOS system integration The EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM includes distance metering information, providing compatibility with the E-TTL II flash system of late-model cameras such as the EOS-1D Mark II N and EOS 5D. When used in conjunction with Canon's range of EX Speedlite flash units, the lens passes distance information to the flash algorithm for markedly improved flash exposure metering. To match the weather resistance afforded by EOS-1 professional camera bodies, an O-ring seals the lens against the lens mount and numerous seals around the lens' moving components provide protection against the ingress of dust and moisture.AF Mode and IS switches have been reshaped, making them less susceptible to being engaged or disengaged accidentally.The EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM comes with a bayonet mount lens hood EW-83H and soft lens pouch LP1219. In keeping with Canon's Kyosei philosophy of living in harmony with the environment, the lens features only lead-free glass.What's in the box Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS EF USM AF Lens, E-77U 77mm Snap-On Lens Cap, Lens Dust Cap E (Rear), EW-83H Lens Hood, LP1219 Soft Lens Case, 1-Year Warranty.

    • Beautiful warm photos from a wondeful all-around lens
Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Despite all the technical metrics, the real measure of a lens boils down to the subjective question: does it take good photos? The EF 24-105L not only takes good photos, it takes beautiful ones, notably nicer than several other well-regarded lenses in the same price range. As an avid amateur, I don't make a living from my camera, but the results matter a great deal to me. After reading every review I could find, I bought three well-regarded lenses to try on my Canon Rebel T1i. This EF24-105L, the new Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM UD, and the very-well reviewed Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM. Both of the EF-S lenses are newer models than the EF 24-105L and are designed for cropped-sensor cameras. The short: The 24-105 turned out warmer, more beautiful photos in both indoor and outdoor usage, capturing vibrant, accurate colors. The IS works well and is much quieter than the newer IS in the Canon EF-S 17-55mm. While some sort of external stabilization is necessary, it works reasonably well for low-light photography. And the colors...grasses are green, skin tones look healthy, my cat's fur gleams, and every color pops. The best results of any lens I've tried on my Canon DSLR so far. On my cropped-sensor camera, there's very little visible fall-off in sharpness at max aperture of f/4 (although there is some softness); never enough that I found myself dialing down the aperture for that reason. As for the other lenses, I really wanted to like the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM, but it seemed to take unusually few "keepers" in similar shooting situations to the EF24-105L. The captured colors were a little cooler, and the IS comparatively very loud (audible without putting your ear to the lens). All of this was enough to offset the wider-angle and the bigger aperture, so back it went (at the thousand-buck mark, I want my glass to impress me!). The Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM UD was solid all-around but without the oomph I'd expect for 80% of the price of the EF24-105L. It's lighter-weight and has a wider angle, and the IS is a newer generation, but pictures were less rich and didn't pop the way the 24-105L's do. A great walk-around lens if I didn't have the direct comparison to the 24-105L, but only worthwhile if the price difference (or few ounces weight-difference) is make-or-break. I kept this one as a backup (or for travel), but find I never want to swap it in place of the 24-105L. I also considered the well-reviewed Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM, but its lack of IS and much greater weight turned me away since much of my usage is handheld. And since the EF24-105 is an L series, Canon includes a lens-hood and a structured storage bag, both nice quality. The cons are what you'd expect: it's a large, heavy, expensive lens, with only a maximum aperture of f/4. It's big enough to draw comments when you take it out in casual settings. But, it's much lighter than other L lenses, and only few ounces heavier than EF-S lenses I tried. The aperture is a limiting factor in low-light photography (tripod or flash or other method required, even with the IS), but the results are consistently very good when properly stabilized. I've used it in a number of bars and other low-light situations. The EF 24-105L has pretty constantly stayed on my camera since I've had it, turning into my walk-around lens, my portrait lens, my landscape lens. Very well worth its price. Highly recommended. ... show more

    • The best all purpose Canon lens
Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
When I bought this lens two years ago, I agonized over the non-IS 24-70mm/2.8 and the digital only 17-55mm. The 17-55mm almost had me, with its wide angle, light weight, and amazing image quality. However, I couldn't get past the dust issues that users were reporting with it - not at its price point. Furthermore, the lens is digital only, which seemed a major limitation if I ever went full frame. (Of course, the FF dream seems rather out of reach in hindsight.) I even tried the amazingly priced Tamron 17-50mm/2.8, but the build and image quality compromises were too much for me. The real challenge therefore came down to the 24-70/2.8. Judging by my informal survey of lenses used by photographers on Popular Photography, the 24-70 was a clear choice. However, two things worked against it for me. It was much heavier than I thought I would be able to handle for a full day, and the extra speed would very likely be offset by this weight compounded by a lack of IS. I'd be sacrificing sharpness due to camera shake, especially when hand-holding this lens without the assistance of IS. The 24-105mm/f4 seemed the best compromise. I was told by my professional photographer friends that I'd not even notice the trade off of image quality and that I'd come to appreciate the versatility of this lens. Thankfully they were right. I absolutely love this lens. Even with the 1.6x crop factor, this lens is wide enough for indoor shots, and the IS has been undeniably helpful. The images are sharp, with awesome colors. They have an almost 3-D like quality about them! Throw in my Speedlite 580, and the f4 is no longer as limiting as it would seem. I've never complained about its weight even after carrying it around for days. Its build quality is simply amazing - it is literally built like a tank and its zoom and focus rings are smoother than ever. If you're starting out in digital photography, I'd strongly recommend that you ditch the kit lens as soon as you can, and start off with the 50mm/1.8 prime (the nifty fifty), this 24-105mm/f4, and a Speedlite 580. This combination not only provides the best bang for the buck but also provides the best all-round kit. Side note: I am of the camp that believes that the lens is more important than the camera. I'd rather get an average camera and spend extra on the optics than the other way around. This lens actually made me a better photographer, and I'm grateful to it. Happy Clicking! ... show more
