Those who went from Sigma 30 on crop, to FF (poll)

Which lens did you get to replace the Sigma 30 after jumping to FF?

..in a pickle now with FF, after being spoiled by Sigma 30/1.4's amazing IQ and value on my previous crop body.

Listing a few lens, from most obvious choices:

Appreciate all feedbacks from those who have gone through this before.

Well.....it wasn't the Sigma 30, but I did eventually replace the Canon 35L which I had used on a 30D with the 24-70L on a 5D.

I haven't replaced it specifically but I'm seriously thinking about the 35L. I have a 24L that gives me a WA field of view if I need one but I don't use it as much as it deserves. When I sold the Sigma 30 I also got rid of the Canon EF-S 60/2.8 Macro. Replaced them both (sort of) with the 100/2.8L Macro IS.

Jeff: I hear you. Not feeling the 24-70 at the moment, still enjoying 24-105
Dave: Missed my Sigma 30. I'm torn between 35L & Zeiss 35

I dodged the Sigma 30 in favor of the Sigma 28mm which supports FF should the need arise. Been a great lens!!

I went from 50 1.4 to 35L and now I have a Zeiss 35mm.

I dont do much MF. So, not need to get MF lens. 35L is my choice. .

I like the normal lens FL but 50/1.4 is a little too soft until 2.0 and up. 50L is a little slow on the focus, and the focus shift issue makes me avoid it. Sigma 50 1.4 is a very affordable good lens but I just dont want to spend endless hours to do lens tests in case the one I get has focus issue.

My 35L on 5DII needs some minor MA and it works like a charm.

I was hesitant with the Sigma downers here on the forum but gave the Sigma 30 a try on my XTi and loved it. When i sold both of those and moved over to a 5D, the first prime I had my eye on was the Sigma 50. I love my Sigma 50 and 5D.

Alas, today is the last day for Canon instant rebate, and I'm still not sure which lens to get
The Sigma and Zeiss, rarely go on sale, so I was hoping to try out either the 35L or 50L while the rebate last

Got my Zeiss Distagon T* 2/35 ZE today
Hopefully this is IT.

I used the 35L on my 50D but when I got the 5D2 I needed something not so wide...so I got the 50 1.4 for a great deal. Haven't tested it yet and I know the IQ won't be as good as the 35L... but I needed something to bridge the gap and I didn't like the 85 1.8 FL

Sigma 30mm f1.4 on my 1dmk2 to 35L on my 5dc.

I was in this scenario.

I was very upset because I loved my sigma 30mm.
But I was lucky and I bought the 35L for 800 euro second hand.

Id hold out on that statement until youve tested it.

Any suggestions besides the 35L? It's not a price jump that most people can afford.
