The EF 28-70mm f/2.8L USM has proven very popular with professional and advanced amateur photographers since it was introduced in 1995. However, the increasing use of digital cameras - most having sensors smaller than a 35mm film frame - has increased the demand for a high-performance standard zoom lens with a wider wide-angle setting.

The EF 28-70mm f/2.8L USM has proven very popular with professional and advanced amateur photographers since it was introduced in 1995. However, the increasing use of digital cameras - most having sensors smaller than a 35mm film frame - has increased the demand for a high-performance standard zoom lens with a wider wide-angle setting. The new EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM lens meets this need. The optical design is based on the previous lens, but incorporates new design features that allow the broader focal length range while maintaining the superb image quality. At the same time, the minimum focusing distance has been reduced from 0.5 metres to 0.38 metres. Improved water and dust resistance ensure that it will become the leading standard zoom lens in the EOS system.Please Note: This model is now discontinued and a new version is now available: Canon EF 24-70mm f2.8L II USM Lens.

Canon 24-70mm f2.8 L USM Further details: The equivalent focal length would be 38.4–112mm if this lens was to be used on a Canon camera with a cropped sensor. To work this out you have to multiply the focal lengths by the size of the sensor, most non full frame Canon cameras have a sensor size of 1.6. EG 24 x 1.6 (sensor size) = 38.4mm and 70 x 1.6 = 112mm.
