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.

  • Amazing Lens!
Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
This lens is miles above the 28-135 IS, its built much better feels better in your hands and the controls are a delight to work with. Your getting every penny you pay for this in quality and technology with this lens and rest assured it WILL preform. Of course we all could wish it was cheaper, but professional camera gear is just this way... when I go out to do landscape and wildlife photography my jeep triples in value as soon as I put the camera bag in the back. The Image Stabilization system in this camera is great, leave it on always, its sensitive enough to even help absorb the flicker of the mirror in your camera. You don't have to switch it off when you mount it on a tripod. While it will not save every shot and blur is always a possibility when you go below 1 60th of a second with any lens but I have had great luck using this to hand hold images down to as low as 1/4 of a second some of them turn out some of them dont but the fact that ANY of them turn out is impressive to me and proof the technology works. You need to know HOW to use the IS however, its important that you allow the internal gyros time to spin up before you take the shot this takes about a half a second. Learning to see the photo before it happens and anticipating the shot is all part of this process, allowing the lens a half second to spin up to speed will allow you to utilize the full potential of IS The circular aperture of this camera works well and allows you to get the depth of field you want with out the annoying jagged edges in out of focus items that lenses with normal aperture blades will give you. Bokeh is a little weak but we are only at f4 so that is expected. Speaking of F4 it lets in a fair amount of light, I have not noticed any Vingeting at any focal length, but shooting on a 1.6 sensor crops out the edges... Compared side by side with the 28-135 on a rebel xti the shots taken with this lens are easily recognizable as more contrasty and sharper. (the 28-135 IS is STILL a great lens however) As with any lens this one has its own characteristics that you will need to get use to. Flare is very minimal in all but the most extreme lighting situations. However when you do encounter flare (usually only happens when your TRYING to get the lens to flare out on you) you usually get a sharp jagged object with a halo around it, If your trying to create a purposeful flare effect that looks good this is not the lens to use. If you just bought the rebel XTi this is the kind of lens you are going to need to utilize all ten million pixels on the camera. So if you buy this lens, congratulations you have just reached the top of technology and optical performance. If treated right this lens will provide you with a life time of images of uncompromising quality. ... show more

  • Excellent general purpose lens for Canon EOS bodies
Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
While this lens should not be considered an all-in-one lens, it comes close. Most serious photographers will have at least two and maybe three lenses to capture all the images that they may want to take, and not every photographer will need the same two or three lenses. This one, however, will be an excellent anchor lens for most small-number lens sets. Unless you have a special commitment to telephoto photography or ultra wide-angle/macro photography, this lens will probably take up to 90 percent of all the images you might ever want to capture. It is good for general wide-angle work up through short telephoto (ideal for portraits), and it even has a limited "macro" ability to shoot close-ups. In pure terms it is actually not a true macro lens, since that term defines a lens that will let you capture a life-size image of the object you are photographing; in a full-frame camera this would be a focused frame-filling image of an item about 1.5 inches wide and an inch high (reverse the dimensions if you are shooting in portrait mode). This lens is instead a close-focusing zoom that will let you take good photos of single flowers, but not get down inside to register tight images of pistils and stamens except with the largest blooms. The lens is one of Canon's "L" (or red ring) lenses, which are their best. It is an image stabilization lens, which allows you to shoot somewhat slower handheld shots than would otherwise be possible. Both the IS and autofocus features can be turned off in response to special photographic circumstances. If you are using a tripod, for example, you may wish to turn off image stabilization, which if left engaged can in some circumstances actually give you a softer image than a tripod alone. If you are shooting close-ups with a tripod, you may also wish to defeat autofocus in order to force the exact focal plane you want for the item you are recording. Canon makes a similar 24-70mm zoom lens that is an f/stop faster than this one, but it is heavier and doesn't have the focal range of this one. Evaluate your likely usage to see if that lens would be a better choice for you than this one. But I have to believe that this lens is probably the best central-range lens in a three-lens system for almost anyone. To set a context for my evaluation, my basic three-lens system consists of this lens, a 17-40mm zoom for very wide angle or interior photography, and a 70-300mm zoom for telephoto work. Since I am also a macrophotographer, I have a couple of dedicated lenses for that kind of image capture. I specifically chose individual zooms with overlapping ranges for general photography so that I could minimize lens changes if an image I wanted to take was right at the capture boundaries of two separate lenses. But Canon makes several different zooms, and picking a lens set with different focal length continuity is certainly possible for people who have different ideas about the best focal lengths for their image priorities. For individuals who prefer to buy a Canon camera body and lens individually rather than a complete kit with lens included, this is an excellent candidate for the first lens you should acquire to make a functional camera package. ... show more
