I did a search, but couldnt find an answer.
So what are the differences between a mk 1 and a mk 2 of the 16-35L lens?

I find it holds the color and contrast very well. Will post examples if you like (I'm not a fan of cluttering someone's question with images unless requested). ••Vancouver Wedding Photographer

Not that the Mark I was bad, but it could be better. In the event it does flare, I just hold my hand out in between the sun/lens. This wide of a lens, flare is almost inevitable and the hood is a little... Goofy. La Vida Leica!

I can see how that is a drag if you already have a set in 77. Agreed, the hood is super goof. ••Vancouver Wedding Photographer
