Just got my 24-70 2.8L this past week and used it for a wedding this weekend.


I gotta say, this is a great lens and I understand why its so popular. Fast and sharp. Everything an L should be.


The one thing about the lens that bothers me, and I'm curious if it is unique to my lens or if it is normal for this model. The action on the zoom ring is very stiff. It is not a smooth easy motion as I'm used ot with other lenses like the 16-35 2.8L. There is much more resistance in the motion.


Does anyone have any input?
