The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM lens is a professional wide-angle lens made by Canon Inc. It replaced the EF 17-35mm f/2.8L USM lens, which had itself replaced the EF 20-35 f/2.8L lens.
The lens has an EF mount to work with the EOS line of cameras. Other than the front element, it is sealed against dust and water, and features a diaphragm which remains nearly circular from f/2.8 to f/5.6.[10]
The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM was replaced by the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM early in 2007. The main change saw the lens adopt a new optical design featuring 16 elements in 12 groups.[11] Other changes include a 35g increase in weight, a larger 82mm filter diameter and a longer length.[12]
The new model II lens has garnered favorable to excellent reviews, and has been used in independent feature films like Marianne which was shot using a Canon EOS 7D.[13][14][15][16][17]
[edit] Similar lenses
The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM is Canon's top-end ultra-wide zoom.
- EF 20-35mm f/2.8L was Canon's first wide angle zoom lens and precedes the 16-35mm.
- EF 17-35mm f/2.8L USM replaced the aforementioned 20-35 and was in turn replaced by the original 16-35.
- EF 17-40mm f/4L is still L-class but one stop slower and less expensive.
- EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM is consumer-level: significantly lower quality and less expensive.
- EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM has an effective angle of view of 16-35mm due to the 1.6x crop factor. It can only be mounted to cameras that support the EF-S format and is slower and less expensive.
