Amazon.com Product Description
Broaden your perspective with the Canon EF 16-35mm ultra-wide-angle zoom lens. Specifically designed for improved edge-to-edge image quality that meets the strict requirements of professional and high-end amateur photographers alike, the lens lets you bring more area into focus while providing greater depth of field. The lens features three high-precision aspherical lens elements--ground, replica, and GMo--that produce even better image quality than the original Canon EF 16-35mm USM lens. The circular aperture, meanwhile, produces a beautiful and natural background blur when shooting at wider apertures. Other details include internal focusing, a ring-type ultra-sonic monitor (USM), and new AF algorithms for fast and quiet autofocusing. The lens carries a one-year warranty. p ul liFocal length: 16-35mm liMaximum aperture: f/2.8 liLens construction: 16 elements in 12 groups liDiagonal angle of view: 108 degrees (at 10 feet) to 63 degrees liFocus adjustment: AF with full-time manual liClosest focusing distance: 0.92 feet liFilter size: 82mm, P=0.75mm/1 filter liDimensions: 3.5 inches in diameter, 4.4 inches long liWeight: 1.41 pounds /ul

 Great Lense 4 Full-frame ... Need wider for Crop Camera (40d) November 30, 2008
Artiom Cernei (Brooklyn, NY USA)
I am not a pro, just a starting event photographer. However, for a year now I have been shopping around for photo equipment: online, in NYC stores, trying out friend's equipmnet, reading reviews, etc. This is a great lens, really sharp, + the 2.8 (which gives great flexibility at low light). However, I have been using it with the Canon 40D (1.6x crop camera); after the first gig I realized that it is not wide enouth. If you a starting up with a crop body and are planning a timely purchase of a full-frame, you will not go wrong with this lens. If not, I would recomend looking into the EF-S 10-22mm. Good luck!!!
Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens review October 6, 2008

I am a hobbiest with a 30D. br / br /This is my first 'L' series lens. I stressed over getting the EF-S 10mm-22mm and the f4 versions both of which are half the price of this lens. I went over the reviews here and at FMreviews. Next, I thought about where I would be using this lens. I tend to shoot in lower light situations and I really wanted to see what this 'L' series lens was all about. I also thought about the future and my plan to eventually go to a full frame camera. I didn't want to have to buy another wide angle lens so this is actually a better idea to have one great lens for both bodies. I wish the included hood was a bit wider as it doesn't help with a bright sun overhead. Other than that I'm very happy with my new lens and will look forward to seeing the world larger than before.
 Worth the price over the 17-40mm f/4 September 25, 2008

I have both the 16-35MM II and the 17-40mm. At the end of the day the images produced by both lenses are sharp. The main difference is the speed. f/2.8 v f/4. When daylight turns to dusk and you're still shooting (ambient light) the option to open up the lens makes it worth it. br / br /Sure its twice the price but the ability to gather more light to get those shots makes it worth it.
Perhaps my most versatile lens. Excellent quality! July 5, 2008

I now own 4 "L" lenses (see below). This 16-35mm f/2.8L is perhaps the most versatile for my needs. I often shoot interiors and landscapes at the wider ranges and the overall quality is excellent. The build quality of this lens is superb (as it should be). The lens is fast, quiet, focuses quickly, and I have no complaints. - When I'm shooting indoors where there are lots of people, this is the lens I use. br / br /Canon Digital EOS 40D br / Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM br / Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM br / Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM br / Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM br / Canon EF 1.4X II Extender
16-35mm Worth the Extra Money July 4, 2008

I was debating between the cheaper 17-40L and the 16-35mm 2.8 II lenses. There is a significant difference in price between the lenses. In the end, I felt that having the extra stop of light was more important than saving a few dollars. After receiving the lense, I have been nothing be astounded by the quality of photos taken with this lens. Lens build and Image Quality are top notch. While I've seen the 17-40 produce high quality pictures, I wasn't about to sacrificy the F2.8 over the F4. br / br /For those not needing the extra stop of light and plan to do outdoor landscape photography, the 17-40 will work just as well. If you want the extra stop of light or do indoor photography, the 16-35mm is better suited for you.
