I did quite a bit of research on this lens before buying it. I must have read fifty reviews. In the end I came to the conclusion that hypercritical people who have enough money to fill their bag with L lenses can find something bad to say about any lens that doesn't have a red ring around it. This lens seems to have a great balance of features with minimal discrepancies for a great price. I own an L lens (70-200 IS F/2.8) and it's amazing, but I don't have the money to pony up for another one this time around. I think this lens fits my needs just fine for now. My only complaint? I usually buy my lenses from this site, but I found it at three other major spots for a hundred and a quarter less. I know it's been cheaper here before so why so expensive now? I wish I didn't have to take my business elsewhere, but that's a big difference and why pay more than you should?
UPDATE: Jan 14, 2009: Well would you look at that! The price comes down a full hundred overnight! Finally the price on this thing is in the neighborhood of other major retailers again. It's hard to believe the price could flux this much this fast. Do some comparison shopping and make sure you're okay with what you are going to pay in case the price suddenly drops after you buy it.Get more detail about Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 Wide Angle Lens for Canon SLR Cameras.
