It features an all-new optical design, designed to provide improved imaging performance right across the frame and reduced distortion compared to its predecessor. The lens also features a smaller, lighter design and weather-sealed construction, and Canon promises improved robustness due to revised internal construction. It’s designed primarily for Canon’s high-end full frame bodies (with a price tag to match), but can of course also be used on APS-C SLRs such as the EOS 7D, on which it offers a 38-112mm equivalent angle of view.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Canon EF 24-70mm f\/2.8L II USM was announced a year ago, in February 2012, as an update to the venerable \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/products\/canon\/lenses\/canon_24-70_2p8\" target=\"canon\"\u003eEF 24-70mm f\/2.8L USM\u003c\/a\u003e of 2002.

Ranging from wide-angle to portrait length, this lens is also distinguished by its constant f\/2.8 maximum aperture to benefit working in difficult lighting conditions and to afford greater control over depth of field. The lens is also characterized by its sophisticated optical design, which includes one Super UD element and two UD elements, which reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to realize a high degree of color accuracy and clarity. Three aspherical elements are also featured, and minimize distortion and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness. Additionally, a Super Spectra coating has been applied to individual elements to control flare and ghosting for high contrast and neutral color fidelity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBalancing the refined optics, this 24-70mm f\/2.8 also sports a ring-type USM and internal focusing mechanism to enable quick, quiet, and accurate autofocus performance, as well as full-time manual focus override. Additionally, this lens is weather-sealed and has a protective fluorine coating on the exposed elements for use in trying environmental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eStandard zoom is designed for full-frame Canon EF-mount DSLRs, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 38.4-112mm equivalent focal length range.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eBright constant f\/2.8 maximum aperture affords consistent illumination throughout the zoom range and also affords greater control over depth of field for working with selective focus techniques.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eOne Super Ultra-Low Dispersion element and two ultra-low dispersion glass elements noticeably reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations for high clarity and color fidelity.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eThree aspherical elements minimize spherical aberrations and distortions for improved sharpness and accurate rendering.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eSuper Spectra coating has been applied to individual elements to minimize ghosting and flare for greater contrast and color neutrality when working in strong lighting conditions.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eA ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM), along with an internal focusing design, optimized focusing algorithms, and a high-speed CPU, is employed to deliver fast, precise, and quiet autofocus performance as well as full-time manual focus override.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eRounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eProtective fluorine coating has been applied to the front and rear element to resist fingerprints and smudges and to make cleaning these elements significantly easier.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eAs a member of the esteemed L-series, this lens is sealed against dust and moisture for working in inclement environmental conditions.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_uPitpTklTT\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_TAw0W35QK_ compact_TAw0W35QK_ sizeBody2_TAw0W35QK_ weightNormal_TAw0W35QK_ primary_i3MsQsqoe0\"\u003eZoom lock lever secures the zoom position at the wide end to maintain a com\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Luck Tech Cameras","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46589461758138,"sku":null,"price":29999.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/0849\/0426\/files\/8AD69504-5AAE-4D2D-828F-B0E09732CF9C.webp?v=1788895238","url":"https:\/\/luckytechcameras.com\/products\/canon-24-70mm-f-2-8-l-usm-ii-brand-new","provider":"Luck Tech Cameras","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
