Thank you Amazon.

Excellent "L" Series quality. You really do need to try one after using the standard kit lens. You'll be blown away. Amazon offer excellent payment terms too. No interest, same price as if paying in one lump sum. Thank you Amazon.

great job done
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Developed a fault when just over 1 year old. Sent to Canon for repair, great job done, but cost me another £136, which ironically took it up to the price I would have paid originally to Canon. No guarantee the same fault would not have occurred, but I do worry now about buying from third parties.

Great for landscapes
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I wanted this lens just for landscape photography. I also have a Canon 24-70mm F/4 which is great. It’s just that sometimes I needed a wider view. This lens deliveres and is perfect for any landscape photographer.

You know how good the lens will be, it's a Canon L series... If this is the cheapest you can find it?...Buy it.

As expected from a modern L-rated Canon lens, this product is fantastic.There are lots of detailed reviews online and I can't find anything to fault with it - just buy it!

from Canon - "this is a product that was not intended for import and sale in the European Economic Area (EEA)"
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Fantastic lens. Just be careful when buying it. I was under the impression I was buying it from Canon via Amazon. Turns out I was buying it from someone called pompi (Amazon just fulfilled it (late, as it turned out, but that was a minor inconvenience)). The problem is that the lens supplied was not supposed to be sold in the EU. From an email from Canon:- "Unfortunately, our records indicate that the serial number provided (please check above) is for a product that was not intended for import and sale in the European Economic Area (EEA). Such products are known as "parallel imports" or "grey market" goods and their sale in the EEA has a number of implications including legal implications." So while the lens is fantastic, I can't claim to be a happy customer. The warranty included with the lens is probably as useful as a chocolate ironing board - and there is no point trying to claim the cash-back that Canon is running on this lens at the moment - unless you'd like your very own copy of the email quoted above. Edit: I returned the lens to Amazon/Pompi and got a full refund - and then repurchased from Amazon directly (£3.08 more expensive). The new lens came with a European Warranty and I have reapplied for the £80 cash-back being run by Canon until the end of September 2017 for this (and other) lens. I am now a happy customer again. Edit: Turns out the replacement was also a grey import (intended for sale in the EAC(russia,asia) and not the EEA(europe)). So I am back to square one and am an unhappy customer again.

... landscape photography and I really can't think of anything bad to say about it
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I have been using this for the last 6 months mainly for landscape photography and I really can't think of anything bad to say about it. Image quality is flawless and there seems to be no drop off in sharpness at any aperture which really is very beneficial for landscape work. Build quality is also top notch. It doesn't feel particularly heavy compared to some other L lenses but at the same time maintains a completely solid and high quality feel. All in all an utterly dependable, consistent, ultra sharp beast of a lens, highly recommended.

Soft in the corners
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I have had two copies of this lens now and both have been quite soft at the frame edges and in the corners on a full-frame body, throughout the focal range and even at narrower apertures. I bought this lens based on the numerous glowing reviews, however I just don't see the quality others are apparently seeing. It performs better on a FOVCF body, such as the 50D, but that's not encouraging since the lens was designed specifically for full-frame cameras. Perhaps I have been unlucky and had two bad copies, but my confidence in this lens is such that I shan't be trying a third. One big positive is that it handles chromatic aberration extremely well - in fact, for an ultra-wide, it really is quite impressive!

Great value ultra-wide FF L series lens. Ultra sharp (better than the more expensive f2.8 version). Great compact design and very handy IS. Comes with a pouch and lens hood.

The high performance Canon EF 16-35 mm f/4L USM IS Wide-Angle Zoom Lens offers a professional quality construction with a fixed aperture, image stabilisation and silent focusing.

High performance

This ultra wide-angle zoom lens offers excellent optical performance and versatility. Offering extremely sharp images with very little distortion, the EF 16-35 mm is perfectly suited to landscapes, architecture, photo journalism, travel and more.

With a constant f/4 maximum aperture at all focal lengths the EF 16-35 mm can be used for shooting in a wide range of light conditions. Staying constant over the full focal-length range, there's no need to adjust shutter speed or ISO when zooming.

Steady and silent

Shot sharp with Canon's four-stop Image Stabiliser (IS) technology, delivering steady shots in all situations, including low light. IS also provides steady, blur free video recording, great for handheld shooting.

Focusing is fast and virtually silent thanks to the ring-type ultrasonic motor (USM), ideal when shooting in quiet environments or video recording.

Smooth and sharp shooting

A 9-blade circular aperture diaphragm offers a beautifully smooth blurred background to make your foreground subjects stand out more sharply.

Three aspherical elements ensure sharpness and clarity right into full frame corners throughout the focal range. Chromatic aberration is virtually eliminated thanks to two Ultra Low Dispersion (UD) elements.

Professional construction

A Super Spectra coating delivers accurate colour balance and enhanced contrast, while also helping to reduce ghosting and flare. Fluorine coatings on the front and rear elements offer resistance to dust and water droplets for optimum image quality.

The non-rotating front element allows you easily attach filters such as a polarizing filter for your landscape photography.

Ideal for professionals and enthusiasts, the Canon EF 16-35 mm f/4L USM IS Wide-Angle Zoom Lens is compact and lightweight for taking with your on all your photographic journeys.
