Had this on my 1DX mark II on assignment in Hong Kong. Brand New Lens. Placed the camera on a table and noticed the lens coming loose off the base. It had broken off exposing the inside electronics. Very very very poor build quality.
The Canon EF 16-35mm F2.8 L II USM has a lot to offer. It is water resistant and has a wide angle. With improved image quality, you can use to shoot professional grade photos. It comes with three high-precision aspherical lens elements. The circular aperture delivers a natural background blur when shooting at wider apertures. With this lens, you also get a ring type USM, internal focusing, and new AF algorithms for better autofocusing.
With the Canon EF 16-35mm F2.8 L II USM, you get high quality images with excellent color. This lens does an excellent job of capturing natural colors and reproducing them.
This lens is well constructed and worthy of its L Series designation. The best part is that the lens is lightweight.
The large 82mm filter size is a new feature. High quality filters offer many advantages. The larger end helps to reduce the comfort of holding the lens a little. However, it delivers better image quality and is worth it. The focus and zoom rings are easy to use and the perfect size.
This lens is weather sealed to protect against moisture. The inside of the lens is gasketed, but the filter is needed to completely seal the lens. The lens remains the same size, but the inner barrel expands from 28mm from just 16mm.
Typically Canon L lenses have an 8-blade diaphragm. The Canon EF 16-35mm F2.8 L II USM only has seven blades. The circular shape of the 16-35 L II's blades help create desirable round-shaped OOF highlights.
The f/2.8 maximum aperture is perfect. It is fast and delivers the desirable results. A variety of lenses add different parameters for shooting wide open. This lens provides exposures that are wide open and can remain the same over the full focal length range.
Anyone looking for a high quality lens will love the Canon EF 16-35mm F2.8 L II USM. It is fast and accurate. The best part is that you can use it to take photos in the rain or underwater. There is a lot to love about the Canon EF 16-35mm F2.8 L II USM.

well the lens id great only in small apertures above 5.6 before that there is a terrible vignetting unacceptable for the price ,if anyone thinks you can fix it with post ,remember for night shots you will create a lot of banding and noise ,i wish i would never buy this lens ,but get the one with is...
I only give this a "9" because it's slightly less sharp than the 70-200/2.8 IS which is not surprising. However I feel that 9 is still plenty. This lens has finally brought me the wider half of the Zoom Holy Duo (the other naturally being the 70-200).
+ sharp + bright + fast and accurate AF + weather sealing
none really
I bought this lens rather cheaply because of the damaged front part of the barrel with warped filter thread. Looked horrible but the filter could still be mounted. I got that fixed later while repairing an unrelated damage case.
very sharp; silent and accurate AF; tough build; ..
Bought this lens for low light photos at family events. This is a very fast focusing lens and seems to gather light from almost nowhere. I have used it to take pictures in doors where there was nearly no light and was astonished at the performance.
When they say ultra -wide they mean it , this is an awesone lens, i can get up-close or go wide and get everything in the shot, and super fast auto focas, i love it.
Consistent Output; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight; Strong Construction
Needed a wide angle lens. This fit the bill perfectly. It does have some slight vignetting at the wide end but for me that's an aesthetic I like. Only had it for a month or so so can't really talk about durability but it handles and feels as well built as many of my other exceptional canon lenses.
Fast lens; Great image
Slight vignetting at wide end (very slight
A very solid built wide angle lens. It provides sharp images with rich color, though the price is a little high.

I shoot a fair amount of sports images. I have a 15 mm FISHEYE but wanted something with some range and less distortion. I have a 1D MARK IIn and also a 40D and the old 20D. I typically shoot DH mountain biking, motocross and some kids sports.
1; Build, 2; Colors it captures so well, 3; Short zoom, 4; fits full frame, 5; Constant F2.8, 6 WATERPROOF
1; HUGE 82mm Filter, 2; Needs filter to be waterproof
So why do I like this lens... The most important thing about this lens is it's flexibility. A constant f/2.8 rocks. It's very difficult to make a zoom wide angle with such a low apature. The image quality is amazing and is really fun to shoot with on dark days or even at night.
f/2.8; Great Clarity
