Intro


Hey there, fellow wedding photographers! If you're on the hunt for the ultimate lens to capture those magical moments on the big day, let me introduce you to the Canon RF 28-70mm f/2.0 lens. Here's why it's my go-to choice, and why it should be in your bag too!

Versatility:


Weddings are a whirlwind of emotions, and as photographers, we need gear that can keep up. The RF 28-70mm offers the perfect balance between wide-angle and portrait focal lengths, allowing us to seamlessly transition from capturing intimate close-ups of the newlyweds to expansive group shots of the entire bridal party without missing a beat.


If you're currently a prime lens focused photographer looking to scale down your kit for a wedding day, having 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, and 70mm wide open at F/2.0 bundled into one lens is a total game changer.

 

Low-Light Performance:


From softly lit ceremonies to vibrant receptions under the stars, we all know that weddings often present challenging lighting conditions. That's another area where the RF 28-70mm f/2.0 lens shines. Its wide f/2.0 aperture not only produces dreamy background blur but also ensures sharp, noise-free images even in dimly lit venues.

 

Durability and Reliability:


Wedding days are unpredictable, and our gear needs to be up to the challenge. Thankfully, the RF 28-70mm f/2.0 lens is built like a tank. Its weather-sealed construction and robust build ensure that it can withstand whatever weather throws our way, allowing us to focus on capturing moments without worrying about our equipment. *PS the outer control ring is GREAT to have. I use this all of the time for white balance! Just another thing keeping my focus on creating rather than in the menus of the camera.


If you haven't used a Canon RF lens before, these lenses have a very durable plastic outer barrel. Whatever kind of plastic this is, it's almost impossible to make a permanent mark on. All marks just wipe away with your shirt or a towel. It's great!


IMAGE QUALITY:


As wedding photographers, we're entrusted with preserving memories that will last a lifetime. That's why image quality is non-negotiable. With its advanced optics and precision-engineered glass elements, the RF 28-70mm f/2.0 lens delivers tack-sharp images with minimal distortion and exceptional color reproduction. Every frame tells a story, and with this lens, the story is always crystal clear.


I would say 85% of my portfolio was shot with this lens. It truly covers everything and handles anything you throw at it beautifully.
