G’day, welcome back to my blog, today, I’ll cover my second Lens I bought and a great all round lens for a walk around lens, the Canon 24-105 f4 L lens. This one was my second L lens I bought and a great lens. It goes from 24mm to 105 so a little more reach than the usual 24 to 70, its only f4 but it still does a great job and I’ve had good results with this one, The only photo I’ve actually sold was taken with this lens. It’s a nice balanced lens when fitted to the Canon 60D, the Camera feels nicely balanced with it. The lens has a bit of weight to it compared to the origin kit lenses, but feels good.

I’ve used this lens now for a few years now and had it in light rain with no issues, thou I try and protect them in wet weather the camera body is more of a worry L lenses usually have better sealing so far so good.

The lens is extremely sharp and the quality of the images has always been great The Superb Wren shot in my portfolio Bird shots was taken with this lens, the shot has been cropped it quite a fair bit but very little degradation of the image.

The F4 is a limit but one I’ve never found an issue and in reality my 70 to 200 F 2,8 lenses is fitted with the 1.4 extender so also then sets it to minimum of F4 so by now I’m use to it, the f2,8 is handy at times but nothing I’ve missed on this lens. The Canon 24-105mm F4 IS a great walk around lens and anyone that asks me what lens they should buy when buying a new camera this is one of the first I’d recommend depending of cause what they photograph.

This weekend I’m heading on my second photo walk so my weekend blog will cover this and what its like to be on a photo walk, hopefully the rain will hold off for Saturday night here in Sydney.

Thanks for Dropping by.

Glenn.
