Rent NowThe Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM is a versatile full-frame zoom lens that covers everything from wide-angle landscapes to short telephoto portraits, making it a popular standard zoom choice for photographers who want a single lens capable of handling a broad range of everyday shooting situations. As part of Canon’s L-series lineup, it’s built to professional standards with weather-sealed construction and premium optical glass designed to deliver consistent, high-quality results across the entire zoom range.
This lens features a constant f/4 maximum aperture throughout its zoom range, so exposure settings stay consistent whether shooting wide at 24mm or zoomed to 105mm, which is especially useful for video work and run-and-gun shooting. Canon’s Image Stabilizer (IS) technology provides up to 4 stops of shake correction, allowing for sharper handheld shots in lower light or at slower shutter speeds, while the Ultrasonic Motor (USM) autofocus system delivers fast, quiet, and accurate focusing that’s well suited to both stills and video. Full-time manual focus override gives photographers the flexibility to fine-tune focus without switching modes.
Optically, the second-generation design incorporates improved lens elements and coatings over the original 24-105mm f/4L, resulting in sharper corner-to-corner performance, reduced flare and ghosting, and better control of chromatic aberration, particularly at wider apertures. The 9-blade circular aperture diaphragm contributes to smooth, pleasing background blur, making this lens a strong option for portraits and subjects that benefit from a shallow depth of field, while its versatile focal range covers everything from environmental portraits and events to travel and landscape photography without needing to swap lenses.
Built with a durable metal barrel and Canon’s weather-sealing gaskets, this lens is designed to hold up to regular professional and enthusiast use in varied outdoor conditions. The EF mount allows it to pair directly with Canon’s full range of EF-mount DSLR bodies, both full-frame and APS-C, and with the appropriate adapter it can also be used on Canon’s EOS R mirrorless system. Its combination of a practical zoom range, constant aperture, effective stabilization, and L-series build quality has made it a long-standing favorite as a walk-around or event lens.
