Utilizing SWC (Subwavelength Structure Coating), the TS-E 24 L II controls flare very well. Performance is very similar to the EF 24 L II in this regard (at the same apertures).ĬA (Chromatic Aberration) is extremely well controlled - less CA than the EF 24 L II and much less than the original TS-E 24mm L.

Vignetting is very well controlled - You might notice a little vignetting in full frame corners at f/3.5, but overall, nothing to worry about. The TS-E 24 II is clearly sharper than the original TS-E 24mm L. Stopping down does not make a significant difference in sharpness - and it doesn't need to. The Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II Tilt-Shift Lens is impressively sharp wide open and is very sharp right into the full frame corners.

I already mentioned the high optical quality of this lens. The Kure Beach Fishing Pier (Kure Beach, NC, USA) image above was captured with the Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II Tilt-Shift Lens and aĬanon EOS 5D Mark II (5:53 AM, f/11, 25 sec, no tilt, no shift). Please be patient for them all to load.Īs exampled in the image below, the Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II Tilt-Shift Lens' movements can be locked at "0" and can be used like any other 24mm lens without the additional movements. Please note: There are over 10 MB of images included in this review. While these are extremely useful features, it is not a requirement that they be used.Īnd since these features require more in-depth explanation, let's review the non-tilt-shift aspects of this lens first. With that fact in mind, I'll next point out the "TS-E / Tilt-Shift" features of this lens indicated by the title. If you need AF, this lens is not for you (though you might find a good excuse to get it along with your AF lens). One of the first things you need to know about the Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II Tilt-Shift Lens is that it is a MF (Manual Focus)-only lens. That's right - and this is not a surprise to those with TS-E lens knowledge. The EF 24 L II has a much wider aperture available - and it has AF (autofocus). Is a match physically and comes very close optically at equal apertures. Owners of the not-much-older Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM Lens can rest assured that their 24mm lens The Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II Tilt-Shift Lens is, optically and physically, the highest quality 24mm Canon-mount lens I've reviewed to date.
