Does your lens inaccurately show the distance of infinity at 24 mm (8 ft), but accurately at 105 mm?

No. I have had no problems with lens setting at 24mm or 105 mm. My friend who has a canon 24-105 thinks my sigma is much better than his lens.

Hi Stephen, I bought the lens for a family trip, and sell it as soon as I can back, I think is to heavy to travel with.

It is not a "fixed" F/2.8. It is a "constant" F/2.8 which does not change when zoom from 24 to 70. It still has the smallest aperture of F/22 that you can use to gain all the DOF you want.

it says Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L on the front in the picture. Take that for what it's worth. =)

Have you measured the lens? Usually the lens are standard sizes so the 67mm could be a typo and you really have a 68mm.

Yes, it's wider angle since it's a 24mm vs. a 35mm lens giving you a wider field of view. Compared to your 35mm f1.8 OSS, it doesn't have OSS.

Yes. Two completely different lens. 24mm is twice as wide as the 50. Especially is u are not shooting a full frame dslr

Make sure the current sight is graduated at the correct distance. It should be fine.

The Canon 24-105mm f4L lens is 77mm. There is a cap for that one, this is not it. The one described here is 72mm in diameter.

go to nikonusa.com.. look at lenses you have the ability to check a box and compare lenes, side by side.. i love my 24-85...

The 24-70 2.8 is a magnificent lense. I would not even think of buying the 24-105.

No lenses do this.An f2.8 lens when racked out from infinity to 1:1 magnification is by definition working at f5.6.The number is the ratio of the distance from the sensor to the aperture divided by the diameter of the aperture.At infinity the aperture is basically 105mm from the sensor (simple lens approximation).At 1:1 the aperture is basically 210mm from the sensor.So the aperture is roughly halved.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-number#Working_f-number

Yes, its a L lens, the 24-105. It would be about $800 by itself. I a incredibly useful lens, F4 is fine for almost any situations except very, very low light. This lens covers photo and video very well.

This a manual lense. Being 8mm focassing is not a problem as long as you remember to keep it around infinity unless your subject is within a few feet. I have had a lot of success with this lense and would recomend.

Basically, when you point the camera to a distant target (like a cloud, stars or the horizon) and you can focus on it successfully. Keep in mind that there are lenses with distance rings that can 'focus' before or past infinity. This doesn't necessarily mean the lens is not calibrated, in some lenses this is to allow for thermal tolerances.In case of adapters, if you have a lens that can focus to infinity just fine in a camera; but can't in another once is attached to an adapter, then the adapter itself might be defective. While rare, it doesn't take much of an error on flange distance to cause focusing errors in that case.

Hey Aaron, common mistake. What you need to do is set the actual aperture on the lens ring to 22 and the lock it on that value so that the little red line aligns with the 22. This happens because you are using an older non focusing lens on a newer body. Problem solved. Have fun, that is a fantastic lens.

It will not. Because they are both 24mm wide. If you want a wider degree of view then you need to buy a lens with a widest degree of less than 24mm.

I physically measured mine using a digital caliper, it can only hold lenses with diameter 65mm safely.
