Canon admits "our old FILM WA's suck!"
By "vastly improving" the peripheral sharpness (about time) on their L-
glass. Canon: The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM is set to become the ultra wide-angle zoom of choice for professionals. With vastly improved peripheral sharpness, it replaces the popular EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM as Canon's leading wide-angle zoom. A constant f/2.8 aperture ensures exceptional low light performance and depth-of-field control throughout the zoom range.

So the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM is going to replace the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM ???????

All the hammering they've taken with their FF cameras FORCED them to FINALLY update a lens design. Could mean fewer people looking at cobbled-on alternative brands to achieve the image quality they want.

All the hammering they've taken with their FF cameras FORCED them to FINALLY update a lens design. Then why did they replace the 17-35 with the 16-35 a few years back? Could mean fewer people looking at cobbled-on alternative brands to achieve the image quality they want. Fewer than the present few? That's very "few" indeed. I don't think there's any doubt that Canon's move to full frame digital has a lot to to do with why the lens has been scrutinized more. I also think, though, that many folks have forgotten what gull-frame film did to the corners of their lenses... It wasn't perfect either... I'm just glad we have bodies that are capable of literally pushing the limits of these lenses. -- Images (Plus Snaps & Grabs) by MarkČ at: www.pbase.com/markuson
