Canon 24-70 f/2.8L Lens

I love unboxing and yesterday, my new Canon 24-70 f/2.8L lens arrived. Not much inside, but I still had great anticipation for the lens. Let me tell you, this is one HONKING BIG GLASS! HEAVY TOO! But the pictures that come out of this lens are simply stunning. I'll post some pictures later. Here are the contents:


  • 24-70 f/2.8L Lens
  • Lens hood
  • Lens bag
  • Manual
  • Registration Card
If you have to have one lens in your life time, this is it. I'm not much of a zoom fan. I much prefer prime lenses over any zooms, but zooms are very practical and don't have to constantly change lenses. It's a good time to buy now since you still have a week to turn in your double rebate for many Canon lenses.

By far, my favorite zoom lens!!! As posted above, I also like the primes but this comes very close in terms of picture quality. You will definitely enjoy it.
