The Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM is the essential “trinity” zoom lens redesigned for the EOS R mirrorless system. Engineered for professionals who demand versatility without compromising optical excellence, this lens delivers outstanding sharpness from edge to edge. It features a bright, constant f/2.8 maximum aperture that maintains consistent illumination throughout the zoom range, making it the ideal workhorse for portraiture, wedding photography, and photojournalism. The optical formula includes three Aspherical and three Ultra-Low Dispersion (UD) elements to virtually eliminate chromatic aberrations and distortion, ensuring high-resolution imagery capable of resolving the sensors of modern high-megapixel bodies.
Beyond its optics, the lens is equipped with Canon’s Nano USM focus system, which drives a fast, precise, and near-silent autofocus mechanism suitable for both decisive stills and smooth video transitions. A 5-stop Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) further enhances utility by correcting camera shake, allowing for handheld shooting in challenging lighting conditions. For tactile workflow efficiency, the lens barrel incorporates a customizable Control Ring, permitting photographers to adjust exposure settings such as aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation intuitively without taking their eye off the viewfinder. As an L-series lens, it is built with a robust, weather-sealed construction and fluorine coating to withstand the rigors of daily professional use.
