✅ Great For
💍
Wedding & Events f/2.8 handles dark receptions. 24-70mm covers ceremony wide to portrait tight without lens swaps.
👤
Portrait f/2.8 at 70mm produces excellent subject separation. Versatile for both studio and location work.
🎬
Vlogging & Video Dual STM motors are near-silent. f/2.8 gives cinematic depth in a flexible zoom.
🏔️
Landscape Excellent sharpness stopped down. Heavy and no IS make it less ideal for hiking.
🏙️
Street Fast AF and f/2.8 flexibility. Large size makes it less discreet than a prime.
⚠️ Not Ideal For
⚡
Sports & Action 70mm tops out too short for most sports. A telephoto zoom is a better choice.
