The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L lens is a professional wide-angle lens made by Canon Inc. It replaced the EF 17-35mm f/2.8L USM lens, which had itself replaced the EF 20-35 f/2.8L lens.

The lens has an EF mount to work with the EOS line of cameras. Other than the front element, it is sealed against dust and water, and features a diaphragm which remains nearly circular from f/|2.8|link=yes to f/5.6.

The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM was replaced by the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM early in 2007.

imilar lenses

The EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM is Canon's top-end ultra-wide zoom.
* EF 17-40mm f/4L is still L-class but considerably slower and cheaper.
* EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM is consumer-level: significantly lower quality and cheaper.
* EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM has an effective focal length of 16-35mm, and is the EF-S analog, though it is considerably slower and cheaper.
