This is my 11th L lens. For many years I thought I didn't need a 16-35mm, and only recently I started evaluating this glass. With the 11-24mm, the 35mm and the 24-70mm I initially believed there was no need for an additional lens in that range. Then I started comparing the 2.8 mark III vs the f 4.0, and eventually decided to go for the extra stops.
Used it for the first time for an entire weekend and found it a perfect solution for what I frequent try do: landscape and urban exploration. While not an expert, I feel pictures are very sharp and the focal range covered is perfect for what I do, avoiding the extra complexity of the 11-24mm in terms of wait, size, lack of filter support and inevitable distortion in the foreground. While I will continue to use the 11-24mm in the foreseeable future, I have the impression this 16-35mm will become my preferred choice in many situations and circumstances. Super flexible, is an excellent compromise offering great quality at every focal length. So far, out of 440 shots, 156 at 30+mm, 140 <+200mm, 76 in the 26-28mm range and the rest distributed homogeneously.

Ultra-Wide Zoom Lens
EF 16–35mm f/2.8L III USM
The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM is an ultra wide-angle zoom lens for professional and enthusiast photographers. It features a 16–35mm focal range for superb perspective control, with a fast, constant aperture and the outstanding image quality you can expect from a Canon L-series lens.
-
Brilliant Optical Design
The EF 16–35mm f/2.8L III USM's optics are made to deliver images of remarkable clarity and depth, complementing the high-resolution sensors in the SLRs favored by today’s advanced photographers.
-
Reduced Chromatic Aberration
Two UD lenses help reduce chromatic aberration, leading to precise color rendition, accurate edge-to-edge detail and sharp contrast. This means brilliant image quality, no matter the subject.
-
Reduced Distortion
The UD lenses also reduce distortion in the edges of the frame, leading to sharp indoor shots and more. This is especially helpful when using SLR cameras with full-frame sensors.
Subwavelength Coatings (SWC) & Air Sphere Coatings (ASC)
The EF 16–35mm f/2.8L III USM's lens elements feature both Subwavelength Coatings (SWC), which help prevent reflections, and Air Sphere Coatings (ASC), which are designed to significantly reduce both flare and ghosting. This contributes to clean images with reduced aberrations from reflected light.
9-blade Circular Aperture
Thanks to its 9-blade circular aperture, the EF 16–35mm f/2.8L III USM is capable of gorgeous, evocative out-of-focus areas and soft backgrounds throughout its zoom range. It delivers an incredible level of control over background blur for impactful photos and videos.

WOW
By Mark on April 7, 2017
Ridiculously sharp at all apertures. I'm selling my 35 prime and 17-40 now that I have this sharp lense. This photo sample is in low light, 16mm, F2.8, 3200 ISO, 3 inches from my pup.
