Indeed in their press release Canon state that this new lens 'offers a lightweight alternative to the renowned EF 24-70 mm F2.8L USM. Dust and moisture resistant and incorporating Canon’s very finest standards of precision optics, the Canon EF 24-105mm IS USM is designed for reportage, event, travel and celebrity photographers looking for a lightweight and maneuverable lens with minimal image quality compromise.

Constructed with one Super-UD glass element and three aspherical lenses, this lens minimizes chromatic aberration and distortion. The result is excellent picture quality, even at wide apertures. Canon's ring-type USM gives silent but quick AF, along with full-time manual focus. Moreover, with dust- and moisture-resistant construction, this is a durable yet sophisticated lens that meets the demands of advanced amateur photographers and professional photographers alike.
