Canon Zoom Lens EF 24-70mm 1:2.8 L II USM

I am selling this CanonZoom Lens EF 24-70mm 1:2.8 L II USM as I have recently "moved up" to a Canon R5 Mark 2 and its associated lens. I am a semi-professional photographer who has always used Canon digital cameras since the first one, the 10D, was released in 2003. The EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM is part of the acclaimed L-Series of EF optics, re-establishing a new standard for superb optics, high-end durable construction, and performance in professional zoom lenses. A standard focal length zoom lens, it features a large aperture throughout its focal length. Featuring the latest advances in optical lens design, it utilizes 1 Super UD lens element and 2 UD lens elements that help minimize chromatic aberration in the periphery at wide-angle as well as reduced colour blurring around the edges of the subject. In addition, 2 types of aspherical lenses are combined to help reduce spherical aberration over the entire image area as well as through the full zoom range. Optimized lens coatings also help ensure exceptional colour balance while minimizing ghosting. The lens is also equipped with a circular 9-blade diaphragm for beautiful, soft backgrounds. A ring-type USM and high-speed CPU with optimized AF algorithms enable silent and fast autofocusing. Built for the rigors of professional use as well as to meet the increased number of shots available with digital photography, it's constructed with improved dust sealing and water resistance while fluorine coatings on the front and rear lens surfaces help reduce soiling, smears, and fingerprints. A zoom lock lever locks the zoom position at the wide end for safe transporting while attached to an EOS DSLR camera over the shoulder. The lens has been protected from first use with a UV Haze Filter, and is in "as new" condition. The lens comes with front and rear caps and a new Canon EW-88C Lens Hood. Included are the original box (as new) and the never-used lens pouch with draw string. This is a great lens at a great price and a perfect pairing to the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV camera body that I am also selling on this site. If you were to buy this lens new from Vistek Toronto, the cost would be $2,900 including HST. Buy it here for only $1,795! From a pet-free, smoke-free home in the Avenue Road & St. Clair area.
