Oct 27, 2010 11:28 | #8 yeah it's my dream lens I had the sigma 30 but couldn't stand the focus issues so I finally cracked and got it. I had the 7d but took it back for the less weight off the t2i, to much weight too carry around all day with the L lenses plus I love the auto iso limit off the t2i.

I also bought the tamron 17-50vc anybody think I should return it or is a good combo with the 35L. I think once I start using the 35L it's never coming off my camera.
