Canon has expanded its EF lens range with the addition of three new lenses – the EF24-70mm f/2.8L II USM L-series standard zoom and the EF24mm f/2.8 IS USM and EF28mm f/2.8 IS USM lenses, which are the first ever wide-angle prime lenses to incorporate Canon’s Image Stabilization (IS) technology.


Continues on the link.




However the 24-70 better be good - price is expected to be about £1900.

Not convinced about the wide primes with IS. OK they needed updating but the price is high, and mostly for video usage.

24-70mkII is £2300 :O

28/1.8 isnt that great at 2.8 in the corners but then the mtf on the new one isnt that flash either..
