Excellent Resolution in All Areas of the Image

This zoom lens provides a 24-70mm (wide-angle to short-telephoto) angle of view and a bright maximum aperture of F2.8 throughout the entire zoom range, as commonly utilized by full-frame camera users, so it can be used for diverse photos such as portraits, landscapes, and snaps. In particular, the optimum resolution is achieved through the optical design of 17 elements in 14 groups (2 ASP, 1 H-ASP, 3 HR, and 3 ED). Capture high-quality images with superior resolution in all areas of the image.

Bokeh from a Bright F2.8 Aperture

The bright aperture of the AF 24-70 F2.8 FE offers a beautifully blurred background. The subject and background are effectively separated with shallow depth of field, creating impressive images highlighting the subject. The 9-blade circular aperture contributes natural-looking bokeh and the beautiful starburst effect.

Short Minimum Focusing Distance

The minimum focusing distance is just 0.35m (1.15ft), so it is possible to produce a unique perspective close to the subject. It makes it easier to take various images such as food on tables or portraits with exaggerated features.

Advanced Fast and Quiet AF for Stills and Movies

Now Autofocus needs to consider not only how more accurately and quickly it captures images, but how quiet and smooth it is. The AF 24-70mm F2.8 FE features the latest STM (Stepping Motor), a larger and heavier focus lens group that can be controlled more quietly and precisely, delivering excellent image quality in both photos and videos.
