Product details

The EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM is a versatile zoom lens that is ideal for professional photographers. With a focal length range of 24 to 105 mm, it offers excellent flexibility for various shooting situations, from wide-angle to portrait photography. The constant aperture of f/4 throughout the entire focal length range allows for consistent exposure, which is particularly advantageous in changing lighting conditions. The lens is equipped with an optical image stabilizer that compensates for camera shake, ensuring sharp images even at longer exposure times. Canon's L series stands for the highest quality and performance, and this lens is no exception. It combines a robust, dust- and moisture-resistant construction with excellent optical performance, supported by the use of Super UD glass and aspherical lenses. Weighing only 670 g, it is also lightweight and compact, making it an ideal companion for on-the-go photography.

  • Constant aperture of f/4 throughout the entire focal length range
  • Optical image stabilizer to reduce camera shake
  • Robust, dust- and moisture-resistant construction
  • Fast USM autofocus for precise shots
  • Includes lens pouch and lens hood in the package.

In der Mitte bietet das Canon EF 24-105mm 1:4,0 L IS USM eine gute Auflösung, bei der Verzeichnung, Vignettierung und Zentrierung zeigt es jedoch Schwächen, ebenso wie bei Blende 4 am Rand. In der Bildmitte wiederum ist die Detailauflösung wieder sehr gut, mitunter fehlt es den Bildern jedoch am letzten Biss...

Rank 2 out of 2FototestStandard-Zoom-Objektive von Canon im TestReleaseSeptember 2013

Das Objektiv ist zwar nicht mehr ganz aktuell, bietet aber mit seinen Leistungen solide Kost. So sind deutliche Verzeichnungen an den Bildrändern zu sehen wenn man die Blende offen hat. Dafür ist aber das Verhalten und Ergebnis beim Abblenden mehr als gut, sodass die Gesamtwertung dennoch gut ausfällt.

Das 24-105 ist vergleichsweise teuer und schwer, aber im Tele auch eine Blende lichtstärker als die Konkurrenz. Die Ergebnisse sind jedoch nur durchschnittlich. Das Canon ist für den vollen Kleinbild-Bildkreis gerechnet. An dem kleinen APS-C-Sensor der EOS 7D sollten die Ecken also top sein, was offen jedoch nicht der Fall ist. Abblenden reduziert den Eckabfall aber deutlich - außerdem bei 24 mm.
