Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS Review (best standard zoom tested so far, Optical Limits)

Canon RF 24-70mm F/2.8L IS Review

Here is a Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS review. The Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS is one of the “holy trinity” lenses for the Canon EOS R full frame mirrorless system.

The experts at Optical Limits (formerly known as photozone.de) posted their full Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS review.

From their conclusion:

The Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8 USM L IS is the best fast standard zoom lenses that we tested to date. However, this doesn’t mean that it’s flawless – standard zoom lenses never are. In terms of resolution, the broader center zone is superbly sharp at all relevant aperture settings. The border quality is also on a very high level. The corner quality varies a bit though. Except for the sweet spot at 50mm, the corners are a tad soft at f/2.8. However, they have recovered nicely at f/5.6 latest. These days you tend to correct the secondary characteristic via image auto-correction. However, when analyzing the raw qualities, the results reveal a couple of issues. The vignetting is rather extreme at 24mm f/2.8 for instance – and that’s despite the very large front element. Complex image distortions are also quite obvious at 24mm and there are fairly visible pincushion distortions at 70mm. Lateral CAs are quite moderate albeit not zilch. The quality of the bokeh is very good as far as general rendition is concerned but not ideal with respect to out-of-focus highlights.

Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS Review (an excellent performer, Photography Blog)

Canon RF 24-70mm F/2.8L IS Review

A Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS review by the folks at Photography Blog. They gave the lens a 4/5 stars rating and a “recommended”. The Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS as announced a in August 2019.

From the conclusion of the Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS review:

[…] it could […] be argued that Canon doesn’t yet have the camera bodies to match up to exactly how good this lens is. We’ve been using the RF 24-70mm F2.8L IS USM with the Canon EOS RP, which is an entry-level model, but even the higher end Canon EOS R perhaps doesn’t quite appeal to professionals.

[…] the Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8L IS USM lens is an excellent performer – so if you do have the cash to spend on it you shouldn’t be disappointed. It’s capable of producing some very sharp images along with very pleasing bokeh. It’ll be interesting to see if Canon releases a very high resolution model to really take advantage of what the lens is capable of.
