It was mentioned before that 35 L really shines on a FF body...i can't afford buying canon 5D with this lens at the same time...so guys what do you think will 35 L be great performer on 20D/30D/40D body...please share your experience and photos as well...thank you

I've not get any particularly appropriate images to demonstrate this but I really like both the 24L and the 35L on both my 40D & my 5D. Having said that I seem think 'wow' more often when I use them on the 5D despite getting good shots with them on the 40D.

I personally feel that the image gap between the 5D and the 1.6x crop bodies is understated. The 40D is brilliant, but the 5D is a lot better for absolute picture quality if less suited to sports / action / bird photography than the 40D.


Having said all that I 100% recommend the 35L on a 40D, and if you can buy a FF body later then you'll just appreciate it even more. What are you looking use the 35L for? I prefer the 24L on a crop body as a walkaround.

I like the 35 on my 30D. Here are some shots taken with this combo.

I find the 35L is fantastic on the 1.3 crop!

I have used one on my 1D II and it works great. Of course, thats not a 1.6X crop, though

Nice 1D Mark II for sale in Northern Cali - $1500 - PM if interested

The 35L is my favorite walk around prime on my 1.6 crop camera.

As a walk around:

You can’t go wrong with this lens; it’s a great one.
