Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM

 

The latest version of the Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM lens is its best take on an f/2.8 wide zoom yet.

Wide-angle zoom. Full-frame coverage. Wide f/2.8 aperture. Strong image quality. Fluorine lens coating.

Pricey. Omits image stabilization. Some distortion and vignetting visible in images.

Canon shooters searching for a wide-angle zoom have plenty of options, both brand-name and third-party, at various price points. The Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM is the most premium model available, and proves that it's worth its $2,200 asking price...

Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM Review

 

The new Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM is an outstanding but also very expensive ultra-wide-angle zoom lens that will appeal most to landscape, reportage and wedding photographers looking for a well-built, weather-proof optic with the main advantage...

Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM III review

 

The Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM III ‘trinity' zoom is a major overhaul

L-series build quality ; Advanced coatings ; Fast and constant aperture

Not the widest-angle in class ; No image stabilization ; Pretty pricey to buy

Holding up the wide-angle end of Canon’s trinity f/2.8 zooms for DSLRs (or mirrorless EOS R-series cameras via a mount adapter), the third and latest edition of this lens represents an extensive revamp. Corner-sharpness is much improved, compared with...

Canon EF 16-35 mm f/2.8L III USM

 

The Canon company is very experienced when it comes to production of full frame, ultra wide-angle zoom lenses as fast as f/2.8. The following chart includes models which have been present on the market during the last 20 years.

solid casing ; excellent image quality in the frame centre ; very good image quality on the edge of the APS-C sensor ; good image quality on the edge of full frame ; imperceptible longitudinal chromatic aberration ; lack of serious problems with...

a bit too high coma for the longer end of focal range ; monstrous vignetting on full frame

Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM Review

 

John Riley reviews the new Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM wide-angle lens for full-frame Canon EF mount cameras.

We have weather sealing, outstanding performance, solid construction and a very high price. We lose IS, but that may be more acceptable in wide angle lenses. Really the question is not so much is the lens worth the price, it quite probably is, but...

CANON EF 16-35 mm f/2.8L III USM Wide-angle Zoom Lens

 

I love this lens. Typical of the 'L' lenses, rock solid construction, handling and gives beautiful results. I would recommend this lens. If you are serious about photography put your money into the lens rather than the body.

Nothing to dislike about this lens.
