Cons: Local service and backup in South Africa, the lense has to be sent to Japan. darkening of the corners on the Canon 1DX at f2.8 Focus acquisition not as fast as Nikkor 24-70mm (I own this lense for my Nikon bodies) Did not do well with White shirts on Video mode on the 1DX

Pros: Good Sharpness at f8 on th the 1DX I shot a very good Wedding Video, the day I bought the lense at f2.8 on the 1DX. For the price it is really good value not qute up to ther Nikkor 24-70 on the D4.

Summary: A fairly good lense for the price, I needed lense for a wedding I was shooting in the afternoon, there was no Canon 24-105 lenses available so I bought this lense. I have shot some landscapes with the 1Dx and a few portraits I an happy with the quality.
