Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L Mark II Final Review

Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L Mark 1 VS Canon 24-70 f/2.8 L Mark 2 – Portraiture Comparison
When Canon announced that they would be charging a whopping $2300 for the mk2 version of their 24-70 f/2.8 L lens, and that it would not contain image stabilization, most Canon users were mighty perplexed. It didn’t help that Tamron had just announced a stabilized 24-70 f/2.8 the day before Canon’s official press release. Kind of a slap in the face for many people who were expecting stabilization especially for such a high price. Also, the previous version of Canon’s 24-70 f/2.8 was no slouch, really. It wasn’t perfect, but then again you could find one used for $1250!

Basically, ….the focus points don’t light up anymore. Not until AFTER focus ins confirmed in one-shot AF, and barely at all in AI-Servo mode.

How a Canon 5D Mark II is Transformed into a Pseduo-Leica
Usually, when one acquires a $6,500 Leica Noctilux 50mm f/1 lens, that’s usually a great thing. The problem for San Diego photographer Robert Brenson is that he did not have a Leica rangefinder body to go with that lens. So then Robert transformed his Canon 5d mkII so it can accept the Noctilux.
