In other words, a 35 1.4 that competes with the 35L for under $1K?
Think it is in the pipeline?

Dont tell me I'd be forced to buy sigma soon! Lol. I'm MARLON

That would be interesting but, meh, 20mm is pretty damn wide on FF for myself. I guess I would be intrigued by such a lens especially if I did video work of any kind. I can see the used for a fast aperture and wide focal length lens for indoor use assuming distortion is well controlled. ---Jay---

The old one had mild barrel distortion...Not bad considering its a 20mm lens! it also could close focus quite close..i believe .25x MM Gear, New and Old! RAW Club Member
