Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L won the “Best Professional DSLR Lens“ award at 2015 Technical Image Press Association awards (TIPA). It provides users with access to the “widest angle of view5 yet achieved for a rectilinear full-frame DSLR zoom lens.” In addition to boasting an impressive minimum focal length of 11 mm, the lens makes possible “minimally distorted images throughout its range.”

Now Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L USM Lens is in stock and shopping.

The Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L USM Lens reviews from several photography sites include features, handling and performance of the lens with several sample and ISO test images.

Those simply looking for a high quality wide angle lens, may be looking a this optic with great interest, and the high levels of sharpness, reasonable distortion and good control of CA may have these people tempted. The price of £2800 puts this lens into a category of it’s own. If you really don’t need the 11mm focal length, your needs may be better served by Canon’s 16-35mm f/4 optic.

So to sum up: Canon has produced a lens that’s as sharp or sharper than its prime counterparts. Although slower (F stop wise). It has chromatic aberration and distortion well under control. Vignetting is probably its biggest fault. But, that’s probably the easiest thing to have fixed in post, so I’m not shaken by that.


It’s a heavy, big lens that might be intimidating to some. It’s very front heavy–so heavy in fact it fell out of my shoulder bag already…

There is no lens on Earth like this, and there never has been. This is the world’s widest lens, and it has super-high performance as well.

If you want one, get one.

If you’ve read this far, you know you want one, and you deserve one. Unlike money spent on camera bodies, money spent on exotic lenses is always a good investment because high performance lenses usually go up in value over time, as well as let you make great images with them all the time. Good lenses are always a better investment than the financial markets, and lenses return the value of letting you use them every day to make pictures, which you stocks don’t.

I’ll have more in the 2nd part of my review, but just take my word – if you can afford this lens then pre-order now. I’m seriously looking at selling lenses, cameras and more so that I can keep this lens as it is good that even my wife has told me I should buy it. That’s never happened before, so I’m taking advantage of this opportunity to get what really is one of Canon’s finest lenses ever.

Yes, it’s better than the Nikon 14-24mm. Yes, it destroys the 8-15mm and 16-35mm (all variants). Yes, it is heavy, but like the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II – some things are worth the weight.
