Normal-Range Zoom. With full-frame sensor coverage, the 24-70mm focal length is the go-to for portrait, wedding, and event photography. It covers the wide to short tele focal lengths to give you the most flexibility while still maximizing image quality and speed.

Fast Aperture. The constant f/2.8 aperture is great for shooting in low light. Additionally, it offers depth-of-field control for better subject-background isolation.

High-Quality Optics. This lens uses three glass-molded aspherical elements and three super-low dispersion elements to minimize aberrations and distortion, while multi-layer lens coatings reduce lens flare and ghosting for color accuracy and clarity.

Silent-Drive Module Autofocus System. This fast, nearly silent autofocus system is ideal for both still and video shooting. This lens’s internal-focusing design makes for quick autofocus performance, while the One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism quickly switches between autofocus and manual-focus modes with a simple slide of the focusing ring.
