Seascapes of SE Portugal with 16-35 f4 lens
1

I have been evaluating this lens for a possible purchase, and recently I had the opportunity to use it in a pre-dawn session in Sw Portugal coast.

The lens is very good, and I can say it is the best wide-angle zoom lens from Canon I have ever used.

Regards.

15 minutes exposure, with strong winds blowing up.

Looks like smooth sea, but waves were 6 m high.

The sun coming up.

How do we tell if it's a good lens, then?

You can:

1. Trust my word for it

2. Try one yourself

3. Read reviews
