Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM

The lens did however have a rocky start, with early models suffering from an internal flare problem , forcing returns and delaying wider distribution. These issues seem to have been solved now though, and certainly the versions we've tested exhibited no problems in this regard.

Useful wide to short telephoto range; Effective anti-shake IS capability; Fast and quiet USM focusing motor; Polariser-friendly internal focusing

Relatively expensive (at list price; Corners slightly soft at telephoto end; 24-70 f/2.8L has better build and focusing; 17-40mm f/4L an affordable alternative

REVIEW: Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM

Gary Wolstenholme takes a close look at this popular 'L' series lens which covers a 4.4x zoom range, has a constant maximum aperture of f/4 as well as image stabilisation and an ultrasonic focusing motor.

Excellent resolution in the centre throughout the zoom range; Excellent performance towards the edges when stopped down; Great Image Stabiliser; Good build quality; Fast silent autofocus

CA levels towards edges throughout the zoom range a little high

Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS Compared to EF 24-70mm f/2.8L and EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lenses

EF 24-105mm f/4L IS Strengths: This 4.4x constant aperture L-zoom lens provides close to the perfect focal length for event photography (e.g., weddings, receptions) as well as travel photography with a full frame camera.

Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 USM L IS - Retest @ 15mp (APS-C)

The Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 USM L IS produced pretty good quality figures in our tests. The resolution is generally very high throughout the tested range with the exception of 70mm and 105mm @ f/4 where the border quality tanked somewhat - this may originate in a slight centering issue of our test...

Great for on the fly photography, but I prefer primes for the smaller size and weight and more flexible aperture. Friends are more cautious in front of such a big lens than with a prime.

No longitudional CA and very sharp everywhere; IS is effective; Good range of focal lengths

Compared to primes, this is bulky, heavy and intimidating with the big front element; Filters are expensive; Quite significant lateral CA and distortion
