What do members think about the canon 24mm f2.8 STM lens? I am considering adding this to my collection of small lenses for those occasions when I take my 760D camera for concerts & similar.

Re: Canon 24mm f2.8 STM lens for EF-S body
Nat...I've just bought one today....seems fantastic....not just for the low price but the construction is good with a smooth focus ring...and the images at f2.8 look really sharp.
I'll give it a proper test tomorrow and post some results.Brian Vickers LRPS

Re: Canon 24mm f2.8 STM lens for EF-S body
Here are samples....the 100D was on a tripod, both lenses set to 24mm and wide open (ISO1600 and shutter speed to suit exposure).
All were RAW, no sharpening or any other adjustment....just straightened and exported to flickr.
I chose the 17-40f4L for the comparison as I know you have that one Nat and its probably the best choice for this focal length.
