Each L Series lens features high performance, first-class handling, and high protection against dust and splashing water. Constant f/4 speed The constant f/4 speed is ideal for use in a wide range of lighting conditions, as there's no need to change exposure times or ISO settings when zooming. Razor-sharp shooting thanks to 4-stop image stabilizer The EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM enables razor-sharp shooting in all situations, and shows its strengths especially in low-light use without a tripod or in macro settings. The lens features a Canon 4-stop optical image stabilizer that detects classic shots or panning movements and automatically selects the optimal IS mode for the shooting situation.

With this lens, too, the manufacturer shows that it can build excellent lenses. Even when open, the results are remarkable, and when stopped down, of course, they become even better. This is also the case with full-frame shots, although vignetting is of course an issue that cannot be explained away. The price for the model is more than reasonable.
If you need a very compact and light wide-angle lens and don't want to spend too much money, this model is a good choice. Although it has some weaknesses with vignetting when open, this is also the case with all other competitors. The imaging performance is high and the equipment with quiet AF and image stabiliser is very good. The lens is also very well made and offers great handling.
