TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II

A superb refinement to a true Canon classic, the new TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II offers enhanced functionality and image quality in its most popular tilt-shift focal length. Designed with UD glass to minimize and compensate for chromatic aberrations and a specially coated aspherical element for the highest possible glare-free image quality, this tilt-shift lens features an angle of view of 84° on a full-frame camera. New TS rotation lets users freely combine tilting and shifting within the range of +/- 90° in the direction of movement. The Tilt function has an enhanced range of movement of up to +/- 8.5°, a revolving construction for both portrait and landscape shooting modes, locking, ergonomically-designed and easily operated tilt and shift knobs, uses a circular aperture for beautiful out-of-focus areas, and is constructed using only lead-free glass and has an SWC lens coating that controls ghosting and flare to a far greater degree than earlier coating technologies.

Excellent Lens
Date: January 12, 2010
Pros: Superior build quality, Super-sharp images
Cons: manual focus only
Being my first TS lens - the picture quality - sharpness, color reproduction and contrast is exceptional. I own several L lenses and this has definitely one of the most sharpest pictures!! Playing with the Tilt and Shift does take time getting used to but learning this lens is fun. Would definitely recommend this lens.

get to the higher planes
Date: October 20, 2009
Pros: Super-sharp images, Superior build quality, extreme focus plane control
I was first a bit skeptical, but after being out in the field and getting used to the endless possibilities of tilting and shifting the focus plane I can't do without it.
Landscape and architecture get a new meaning, but also portraits/wedding can get that nice addition if you use the TS intelligently.
Perfectly sharp (sharper than the corresponding prime, IMHO) the superiority is easily visible on my 5D mkii.
Not having an auto focus (no, I am not complaining), I would suggest also to add a manual diaphragm control for quicker control.
