Looks fake to me. Shadows don't jive. Still, it's just a matter of time.

That's a 24-105. Search for one of those on google and look at the identifying features. Focus scale indicator is on the bottom here, and on the 24-70 it's on top of the window.

The 24-105 has a zoom mark at 70, as well as 105, which is just obscured by the curvature of the lens here.

I think that is more likely.

The lens hood is nowhere near massive enough to be the 24-70 f/2.8 either...

It is indeed the EF 24-105 mm f/4L IS USM. I just compared it with mine. They are identical.

Best laugh I've had all week.

So if I turn my 24-105 on its side and photograph it from an angle that doesn't show the 105mm marking, that turns it into a 24-70 IS?

Ahh, the power of photography! It even alters the focal length of lenses. Remember - You don't need Photoshop if you can do it in-camera!! :lol:

Reminds me of the time when I placed a 17-85 on a table in front of a 5D (EF-S lenses cannot be mounted on FF) and took a photo of it from the front.

"How'd you mount it on the 5D?"

"....I didn't..."
