  • Robust, weather-sealed build, Lightweight and portable
  • Maximum aperture only f/4, Sharpness fall-off at edges
  • It's not the brightest or sharpest lens you could buy, but the Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM represents a superb balance of value and functionality. Providing a useful zoom range that's especially good for landscapes, the EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM bolsters th...

  • Abstract:  This image was shot with a Canon EOS 60D converted to infrared by LifePixel using the predecessor to Tamron's 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5 Di II VC HLD lens, my AF 11-18mm f/4.5-5.6 Di-II SP LD Aspherical IF. It was shot at 11mm with an exposure of 1/160 second at f...

  • Abstract:  We've tested 130 lenses on Canon's flagship camera, the full-frame 18-Mpix Canon EOS-1D X Mk II, covering focal lengths ranging from an incredibly wide 11mm up to a super-telephoto 600mm.We've split the results between primes and zooms and then arranged t...

  • At $449, both the full-frame-format Tokina 17-35mm f/4 and the APS-C-format Tokina 12-28mm f/4 are good value for the money wide-angle zoom lenses for Nikon and Canon DSLRs. Achieving respectable results in most DxOMark lens metric comparisons, particular...

  • The 16-35mm ƒ/4L IS USM occupies an interesting niche in Canon's line up of wide-angle zoom lenses. Some may question the usefulness of having IS on a wide-angle lens, but it does come in handy both for movie-making, and for when you don't want to lug aro...

  • solid casing and high build quality, excellent image quality in the frame centre, very good image quality on the edge of the APSC sensor, acceptable resolution on the edge of the full frame, imperceptible longitudinal chromatic aberration, low lateral chr
  • very high vignetting level on full frame, weak performance against bright light, distortion level at 16 mm on full frame could have been lower.
  • We have no doubts: the EF 16–35 mm f/4L IS USM is currently the best ultra-wide angle zoom lens in the whole Canon line-up. It is also noticeably better than its rivals from other producers such as the Nikkor AF-S 16–35 mm f/4G ED VR or the Tokina AT-X PR...

  • This is the lens I requested from Canon. I would like to think that Canon designed this lens at my request (sometimes being delusional makes one happy). More arguable of course is that there was a demand for an image stabilized full frame-compatible ultra...

  • Abstract:  The Canon 16-35mm f/4 L IS just might be Canon's first ultra-performance ultrawide for full-frame. It's also Canon's first full-frame ultrawide with (IS). To be perfectly frank, while Canon's and are the sta......

  • This is a very good lens. It has a useful IS system that allows handholding for long exposures, and less vignetting and quality fall-off at the edges than expected. If the ability to handhold your camera is more important than achieving a shallow depth of...
