Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L USM Wide-Angle Zoom Lens (Black) - 6PC Accessory Bundle

Great quality, easy to use. Beautiful picture quality

As I've transitioned from film to digital, my equipment has increased in features and worth for my use--landscape, color abstract, and real estate--and some things keep proving to be true: the photographer's skill remains the most vital equipment in the equation, but good glass means more than anything. In 50+ years of taking pictures I've owned some good equipment, and have seen the change in zoom design where the modern zooms are so close to the quality of a prime, it seems almost foolish to leave the zoom at home for a job. I went from a love affair with the 10-22 on my 50D, to the 16-35L 2.8 on my Mk III, then to a greater love affair for the 16-35 4.0, then the plunge into the price of this lens 2 years ago. This lens is expensive, heavy, extra care for the bulbous lens sitting out there, but I will grab this lens before any other. I've carried it on 15+ mile hikes to get the shot I wanted because this is the one lens that would provide the color, sharpness and depth I was after. Inside work is a bit trickier, but if slightly out of level, cropping to the center still leaves a wider view than my 16mm provides. And, if level...well, anything I can bring to the equation to make a good photo is only amplified by this lens. I love it.

This 11-24 has really helped my business in commercial real estate. Our marketing materials really pop and we can show our properties as though the client was standing there. We have sold and leased several properties because of the impact given from the 11-24.

I have been doing virtual tours for a local real estate agent for the past 3 or 4 years. I started with the original EOS 5D and a Canon EF 17-40mm, f/4L lens, and soon upgraded the camera body to the 5D Mk lll. I continued to use the same 17-40 lens. The problem with the 17 x 40 lens was that most of the time I had to stitch 2 shots together to show rooms in their entirety. This was time consuming, and even using PhotoShop to stitch the pictures, distortion was almost always present. I hesitated at first when I saw that this new lens was finally being released, I have to admit the price was what was holding me back, as well as the fact that there were no reviews available to get feed back from other buyers. I finally decided to take a chance and I ordered the lens. I've only had it for a couple of weeks now, and in that time I've used it to do virtual tours on two properties.......Long story short, I'm blown away. The pictures it takes are great! The only negative thing I have to say about it other than the cost is it's weight.......I won't be using it very much with the neck strap, bottom line is.......I love it.......

I do architectural photography had I had been using this lens for over three weeks in difference jobs. This lens it is outstanding the optic quality, the excellent construction and the wide coverage at 11mm aloud to take photos that before were not possible unless a panoramic was done. Any distortion is minor in comparison with other lenses the 16-35 or the 17-40 and much better chromatic aberration control. The lens is heavy but do not bother me I always use a tripod. It is pricy but you get what you pay for.

I own the Canon 16-35 f/2.8 along with the Canon 16-35 f/4….. and also the Canon 14mm f/2.8. I have been waiting for the new Canon 11-24 for about as long as I can remember as I love photographing wide-angle all over the world, being a travel photographer. The new 11-24 is just about as sharp as the incredible 16-35 f/4 and it is the most beautiful piece of glass that I have ever used in my life. It is big and heavy, but it almost doesn't matter as you know that you have one amazing lens in your hand and there is nothing to describe the images that it takes. At 11 mm, it is absolutely astonishing. sharp from corner to corner, no chromatic aberration at all, and almost no vignetting except possibly a little at wide open. I have been waiting for this lens for as long as I can remember and Canon has totally delivered. There is nothing like it on the market and the photographs just blow me away. I have done thorough testing with it against every other Canon wide angle that I have, and it is in a class by itself! Thank you Canon making the most beautiful wide-angle zoom lens any of us have ever seen!

I am a professional and I own this lens for about three years. I shoot home interiors for multiple listing. I could not do the job that I do without this lens.

I'm a Architectural photographer and this is perfect! The only issue i've had was shooting very larger rooms wide open, sometimes I have to zoom in on post processing. I love it!

I purchased this lens few months ago and using for landscape. That's was amazing, super wide picture, sharp, details. The feeling of holding hand is very good.The lens is suitable for architecture I just regret that is has no IS mode.

Architectural photographer. Lens performance is excellent for exteriors. However interior photography with longer exposures especially with led light sources in ceiling and walls, ghosting is very apparent with this lens and hard to correct.
