Canon announces updated version of their popular Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM lens

Canon has announced an updated version of their full-frame Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM lens.

This high-quality full-frame EF mount lens was released quite a few years ago and an update is very welcomed. Having owned this lens myself (sadly, now sold) I can certainly vouch for it's quality and I'm confident the updated lens will not disappoint.

You can read the full Canon press release here.
