Love it - Great Lens for low light (and for the cost)Review created: 11/30/07(updated 12/04/07)

Purchased this to be the companion lens to my 50mm -- 1.8
It is a 28mm (or "prime") lens, so you don't have the ability to zoom. But for $160 (ish) you can get a 2.8 lens and capture some terrific low light shots. The glass is very nice and the shots I have taken with it are very sharp. Is a little noisy (no UltraSonic Motor) but after a few minutes I didn't even notice it.
Used this lens to photograph an anniversary party a few weeks ago. I couldn't use the 50mm (wasn't enough room for me to back up from the group), but the 28mm let me get the shots - in very low lighting conditions - and my client was thrilled. Nice lens for the price for those times when the room is small...and the lighting isn't all that great.

best DSLR option

great lens for DSLRs with a 1.6 crop factor. Rivals L series in quality at much less than half the price. I find the quality suppior to ANY of the zooms, including L series. Best option unless you're going to spend ~ 1K. Do not hesitate to purchase one of these

Finding GOOD used EF Lenses- CAN be done~!~Review created: 08/06/09

I recently had been seeking a 24mm EF Lens for my 630 EOS Canon. I was very lucky to find HONEST Sellers on E-bay as I have with Many Sellers , but dave_renee were GREAT & are quite willing to help me learn how to really use this Lens to its best ability & the Price was GREAT too. I LOVE this Lens for Flower shots & Detail. Its Clear ,FAST , Good in Low Light situations & best of all it came as New from a second owner. I am looking into the New 50D Canon DSLR & ALL these EF Lenses WILL fit from my 630 EOS Canon & thats a HUGE Plus +++++!!! I have to agree with Dave though. Its NOT about the High Dollar Lenses , but in KNOWING how to use what you have to its best potential !! I cant afford the L' series Lens , so learning HOW to get the most out of what I have CAN & WILL produce shots equal to the High Dollar L'Lens ( I hope..'lol') I hope Canon makes these a bit more affordable to people , considering the hard times we ALL face in todays economy ! , if so , I will then upgrade maybe to a BIG Zoom Lens. Thank You & have fun out there taking Paper Memories ( or Digital ones too) its the best way to always have yesterdays !! once again , Thank You , Lori aka: sheltydream62 on e-bay

At the optimal focus distances the EF 24mm f/2.8 is an excellent performer capable to deliver images as sharp as it gets on an 8MP APS-C DSLR.
