Customer Ratings & Reviews

This land is one of the best lenses for close-ups and portrait photography that you can possibly buy absolutely amazing lens. Cannon knocked it out of the park with this one.

If you're hesitating between the 24-70 and the 28-70.. stop, close your eyes and take a deep breath... open, and buy this one. You will NOT regret purchasing the 28-70. As a concert photographer, and someone who loves prime lenses. This lens DOES IT ALL. There is a noticeable separation from subject and background at f/2 vs f/2.8. It is a heavy lens but anyone who has shot old EF glass / DSLR really wont notice a massive difference. I've shot video on this as well thinking I would get better footage from the 24-70 because of the IS, and I was surprised to noticed the IBIS from my R6 provided an unnoticeable difference between the two. The only thing you may have to take into consideration is gimbal max weight, if you're running a cheaper gimbal, you might not be able to balance it as well with the 28-70 vs the 24-70. I also have a 15-35mm so the loss of "24-28mm" really isn't a big deal to me. This is the ultimate every day carry lens. Landscapes, Animals, Concerts, Events, Portraits. This lens can do it all! I am incredible happy with this lens and have zero buyers remorse after using the 24-70mm and 28-70mm back to back.

Absolutely the best lens for photography! It’s creates the best quality images on the market!!

I really love this lense already it’s one of my bigger purchases for lens and the quality is just great. I love the ability to zoom as I typically use a 35mm for just about everything. This lens just adds a little more ability when it comes to capturing variety of images with standing in one space.

One of my best purchases among all the canon lenses so far.

This lens is amazing. I got rid of my 2 prime lenses for this workhorse. This lens has everything you wish for but the weight. It is very very bulky and heavy. I still love my 85mm a little more but this lens is on my camera most of the time cause it’s perfect for family and wedding photography. Did a whole wedding with this lens and one camera and in the past I would use my 35mm, 85mm and 24-70 and two cameras.

Best purchase ever!! I waited FOREVER to get this lens, but the reaction from my last wedding I shot will easily book enough weddings to pay it off tenfold! OBSESSED!

The results are great. This lens hasn't left my camera since I purchased it. It gives the quality in the look of a prime lens with the convenience of a zoom. I own the RF50 1.2 but now I am considering selling that lens because this lens offers more convenience. The weight is not an issue for me because I use a hand strap. The zoom ring is a bit tight but I assume it will loosen with extended use.

The best price of glass I’ve ever seen. It’s a all around lense I love it my favorite

This is an amazing lens. Perfect for what the wife needed!

One of the best lenses that you can get if you do weddings or events. The bokeh is amazing considering us not a fixed lens.

Super good quality. Weight takes some getting used to. Overall happy

This is a beautiful lens and convenient for shooting weddings and events due to the zoom. Photos are fantastic and the 2.0 is clutch. However, it isn’t as fast as my primes and misses focus more frequently. I’d give it 5 stars if it could keep up.

Love this lens great great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So glad I got it love to shoot with it Wow

This product is great photographers that come out sharp

My favorite lens for weddings & family portraits. The best of primes and zooms in one.

Outstanding over the phone service from Best Buy! The lens! It’s worth every penny! For me, I love it

After months of research and watching videos, I decided on this lens over the 24-70. Love it so much and it never leaves my camera!

Works great. .....................................

Great lens but don’t buy it from Best Buy. Go to B&H. They shipped in a bubble mailer and it arrived broken. Very hard to start a rerun and only have bots to talk to. Very frustrating.
