From The-Digital-Picture:
The 16-35 L III is the new standard wide angle zoom lens for professional and serious amateur wedding and event photographers, photojournalists, sports photographers, street photographers and many others.
From Lens Rentals:
From a resolution standpoint, the Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 Mk III is the best f/2.8 wide-angle zoom available. You might be better served with the f/4 IS and some money in your pocket. There are also some very good wide-angle f/2.8 zooms available from third party manufacturers that are a lot less expensive and might offer more bang-for-the-buck.
From Photography Blog:
The Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM build quality is satisfyingly excellent. It makes a perfect partner to a full-frame Canon DSLR like the EOS 5D Mark IV that we tested it with. Auto-focusing is very quiet and very quick, with the ability to manually override it and focus manually if required proving a nice touch.
From Ken Rockwell:
This is clearly Canon’s top pro ultrawide for news, action and sports where we need a faster aperture for faster shutter speeds to stop motion — or for astronomy. It’s also Canon’s newest, biggest and heaviest ever. This lens has no Image Stabilization. It freezes subject and camera motion with its faster f/2.8 speed.
