Ok I've never seen this lens until I got a photo sent to me today, I offered a mate my 50 1.4 as he didn't have a fast fifty, he has offered me a swap for the 20-35mm 2.8 L,
I'm sure many of you have had experience with this lens, what's it like? Sample photos would be awesome!!


Cheers

-Corey

Older lens, not serviced any more, I don't believe, but people seem to like it.

Hahaha...... Thanks guys, it seems ok, I might go for the swap, I got the 16-35mm f2.8 II but a spare in the bag is never a bad thing, I never use my 50 1.4 anyway as i got the 50L

There is one user here who shoots it...

IIRC he gets some very impressive results out of it, Id say if you have a FF body and that its well worth a trade of a 50mm f/1.4

I have a 1.3 crop on the 1DMKIIN and 1DMKIII but have a 5D I plan to use it on, even on the 1D it wouldn't be to bad
