I find the 35 ART to be a peach of a lens; well-built and sharp, fairly quick to focus. Unfortunately, I'm somewhat of a stabilization junky, so it gets little use.

I like big cinema cameras and I can not lie

AlanU Cream of the Crop More info | Jul 23, 2016 02:14 | #34 Bonbridge wrote in post #18046013 I probably have more out of focus shots with my 70-200LII than my 35/1.4 art. 35 became my favorite lens I think. Wow!! I'm shocked with your copy of the 70-200. Seems my newer gen 16-35 f/4, 24-70 and 70-200 is ridiculously sharp and accurate in focus. During family sessions to events photography I never get weird AF issues ever. 5Dmkiv |5Dmkiii | 24LmkII | 85 mkII L | | 16-35L mkII | 24-70 f/2.8L mkii| 70-200 f/2.8 ISL mkII| 600EX-RT x2 | 580 EX II x2 | Einstein's

Just had a pivotal moment at a wedding where I was indoors and it was well lit. Focuses on the bride and groom and it confirms af when it was way off. Multiple times. I almost chucked it at the wall. Went 35mm f1.4ii canon just cause I can't shoot live view and manual at a wedding. But in all fairness the optics is great Todd Kwiczak
