Very nice photos from everyone. For a long time (since March), I feel so inadequate because I can't get one sharp photo from this lens at F1.4. Tonight I decided to take off my B+W filter to see if there's a difference. I'm so glad I did...what a nice surprise!!

so now I'm curious, do you all shoot without a filter when using this lens?

I use B&W multicoated UV's with occasional ND and CP filters, I never noticed an issue with sharpness.

This is 1.4 ( on a 60d ) seems as sharp as I would expect.

I just rented this lens for the weekend, and have only shot with it for a few hours so far but I love it!

My first tests are always cats and dogs since they're always around to model for me :P

I absolutely love this lens like a few inches away from them lol.

and those are just on a canon 30d, can't even begin to imagine how sharp these would be with 18mp+ of a 7d.(I really like the 35mm perspective of the crop though).

Ok so my lens rental weekend continues!

Went and got sushi last night, accidentally left the ISO much higher than it needed to be, because I was in a hurry to eat lol. ISO 1250 when I could have gotten away with 400 or lower.
f/1.8
