Pros: Image and colors with good sharpness and pleasant colors. Great used price

Cons: AF a little slow.

Opinion: One of my favorite goals, lightweight and all do for a full frame. It returns pleasant shots and with beautiful depth and sense of three-dimensionality. Not suitable for speed but never disappoints in everyday life. Great brightness, I also use it for home shots with poor !uce and never disappoints! I always keep it in the bag andseendo small does not disturb at all.recommended!

Pros: Cost of used, sharpness, colors

Cons: Not stabilized

Opinion: The lens that I bought used around € 210, like new, is giving me great satisfaction. On aps-c becomes a normal focal length, excellent for street and reportage, on full frame is appreciated for its reduced pdc and brightness. The absence of the stabilizer can be a cons, but in my opinion, not to justify the highest spending for the brother IS. rn 52mm filters, so cheap. Impeccable assembly, low weight. Excellent fixed focal to be taken in the city exits.

Pros: Sharpness and Cost in used.

Cons: Soft wide open, rendering the edges, blurred a little hard

Opinion: I had this lens that has always impressed me for his surrender with the 5D Old, on the contrary of aps-c I find it too soft to f / 2.8. While closing the diaphragm becomes a blade, especially in the center. rnSu FF has an interesting focal while on aps-c is too long for photos street and too short for ritratti.rnormai is really dated a goal, I replaced it with stabilized model that offers the highest performance at full aperture and an AF much better. But the buy back if being updated as the 5ontino STM.rnAlberto.rn

Opinion: I state that the use of Canon. 70d with great satisfaction, at full aperture is soft used only in cases of emergency, it closed 2.8 changes the face becomes a knife, sharpness going to f 11 is exceptional at least in my copy does not make me regret the canon 50 1.4 I had in which I 've changed.

The only flaw is the slow pace of 'af else for the price is a good buy for those who want a 35 with character. You can use a little 'to everything is a good compromise for those who want to use to do some' of all the quality certainly is not lacking.

Pros: Sharpness, color, size, weight, price

Cons: AF a bit 'slow and noisy

Opinion: What to say except: "I'm in love with you"! RnOk that is my first 35, but I'm mostly pulling from the camera body. Small, light, always ready to use, it does not scare people and does not attract stares given the small size. amazing colors and sharpness (probably not the big brothers L level, but has really amazed me the image quality) and I also love the vignette that creates (so for lovers of absolute cleanliness would not recommend it) .rnHo tried to use it for a while street, marriage, and how many do not like it, even for ritratto.rnInsomma, as a first step into the world of fixed (and 35mm on FF) I could not ask for more, optical consigliatissima for exceptional value for money.

Pros: lightweight, small, high quality 'optical

Cons: It makes little scene

Opinion: I had already 35 f2 of Aps-c, and I was not at ease. The autofocus was slow and noisy, the equivalent focal length of 56 a bit too long for my taste, and that 'f2 that eventually made it as a F3.2, had prompted me to sell it, despite optically was impeccable. Once purchased the 6D and heard various opinions flattering, I decided to take the perspective that had since been discontinued. I was torn on whether to throw or try again Is the old series and so I opted for his inimitable lightness, ridiculous size, featherweight and exceptional performance on FF. Gone the hesitation on the 6D autofocus module, and 'become so quick to do more' to hear its noisy motor. Sharpness always great, also open, three dimensional '35mm, made a little old style that does so much film, in short, a' perspective to keep in close and put it in the list of those to never give up. Vignetting and other aberrations, I do not notice even having the lens correction Room Raw and come out clean on the DPP program. The only TROUBLESnte 'that you will be seen as the "poor" with a cup attached to a FF 35 .... dear, forgive them, for they know not what they say and what they're missing.

Pros: not L series

Cons: not L series

Opinion: I understand that it seems a contradiction, almost a provocation. I was looking for a long-optic "simple", something of content, easy to carry and that was not visually "invasive", as almost all the noble objectives canon, they are, for better or for worse, massive, overpowering. For a professional like me make the leap to the NON L has not been easy. I read and re-read hundreds of reviews, forum, etc. etc. I must say that when I saw that my provider trust him, in asking, almost ashamed. then I got courage and I bought it at a good price I have to say, about 200 €. It looked new, but it is not what I want to talk. Just plugged in my "spare car" (the mII 5d), I immediately had a good impression of "handling", ease of use, almost as a "compact". Already on the way back to the studio I started collecting notes street, finding now really at ease. The cut "35" is perfect precisely street to be seized. Focus defined "slow and noisy" by all, in a wide angle simply NOT there. The surprise I had then to the PC, when I found myself with a definition that, pardon the extreme that many do not share, significantly beating the 24-70 2.8. The brightness and the right proportion of colors, make up the rest. Sure is a fixed lens, many will say. Of course I say why I bought it, so from this point of view I did bingo! Then comes everything else. Today had its baptism of fire in the theatrical backstage. I moved in the dressing room with agility shooting, without bothering anyone, without being noticed. Not because you have to steal anything, but because an objective "bulky" as already 1.4 L, would create embarrassment and mistrust, as it always did with 24-70. The right shot for shooting fast, not to miss the moment, the face of the dancer set for a second before going on stage, the addition of Diboranefleeting and load displacement of fear, apparel. The jokes sotto voce between friends. Things are not easy to take in those moments when you could ruin the moment you should NOT do. Do you find yourself shooting in the dressing rooms, in the glimpses behind the stage, looking for those moments that pass too quickly if you have the wrong perspective. Even felt the weight in my hands, and I did not have time to see "something" was going to happen, that the shot was made. excuse the rhetoric canon thanks to this light L is not simple, noisy and slow, that the right time comes to give you excitement and satisfaction that other optics can not do.

Pros: Small, light, cheap, bright and 35mm

Cons: Af unresponsive, bokeh a little too "polygonal".

Opinion: After using the 24-105 long, I realized that the focal length of 35mm was often on in my shots. So I decided to take a 35mm focal classic to start experimenting with a fixed light. The choice could not not fall on the 35 f2 canon.rnLente a bit dated but able to return very beautiful pictures. Objective of limited size and low weight in combination with an SLR allows you to go around in a lightweight and inconspicuous. Being one of the first lens of the Eos system is not equipped with a usm af which makes focusing a bit slow and noisy, especially if compared with that of the lenses more moderne.rnL 'goal is always able to give a reasonable detachment of plans between the subject and the rest of the scene. The bokeh, because the diaphragm to five blades, it is not the softest in the world but when you consider what you are spending you can not ask for much more. A little sticker on TA, PP nothing that can not be easily corrected by software. The color rendering is faiththe and I have used especially for portraits settled, in which the use of 35mm esaltano.rnIn is ultimately a small and lightweight lens that allows you to familizzare with large openings at a decent price and that can be found on the used market around 200 Euros. If you do not ask too AF could be a very attractive lens for budget-conscious.

Cons: One duretta blurred a bit and focus but noisy For 200 € you can not have more

Opinion: One lens very bright, gives great shots, great with colors reali.Con its focal you can shoot in dark environments, according to the times in safety without sacrificing nitidezza.La focus is not lightning but doing her duty .

Pros: Price, lightness.

Cons: Af a bit noisy, not with the lens hood.

Opinion: You can find it at a good price too new, lightness and compactness are his forte autofocus found it noisy but quite accurate. Objective great light for the interior, for nights out and for the street. Good build quality, also the 35mm on APSC is roughly equivalent to a 50mm on ff, well reflects the proportion of the human eye. Recommended for those who want a fixed lens, bright and not too long.

Pros: Lightness, brightness, price, sharpness.

Cons: Af noisy

Opinion: I bought this lens used and I must say that is really all there, will definitely not be the equal of the more famous and more expensive lenses but I like it so much, I did not think that would give me so much satisfaction, it will also old and outdated but for what costs we can not have più.rnLa sharpness of Ta is already good, the bokeh is good, it is also extremely light and compact, you can easily keep in your pocket, we say it is a sort of twin of the "big brother" Canon 50 1.8 II ( if we put them close are virtually identical), but the 35 has its favor has the quality of construction, Bayonet and metal scale distanze.rnLo highly recommend it to all who want to have a perspective a little bit shorter than the traditional 50 and do not want to spend madness.

Pros: Excellent sharpness, quality fixed lens without compromise in price, lightness, cheap filter; 35 Focal ideal for handyman on full frame

Cons: Bokeh is not exceptional, a bit 'slow in the AF;

Opinion: After reading the opinions on the forum, I decided some months ago to buy the lens before making the leap to the 35 L. I was really amazed by the quality of this lens, which has gone far beyond my expectations. On FF (5d mark II) I was able to compare it with the 24-105 L, which at the same focal length is losing against the small 35. The sharpness of the 35 is hard to beat, seeing is believing. I also appreciated the extreme lightness that allows you to go out with the 5d as if it were a big firm. Perhaps it may appear a pro trivial, but I assure you that I have often declined to take the 24-105 because of the weight and footprint also due to the fact that the evidence made by me, 35 is a winner against emblazoned handyman . Perhaps the 50 1.4 is more suitable for portraits, given the greater openness and clarity, but I assure you that this lens is worth every euro it costs! RnCredo that combined with a FF body give the best of himself as the focal length is really 35 best of this format. I've used both pere landscapes to portraits ambientati. The openings 8/11 from the best, although at full aperture behaves very well. Perhaps it is true that the bokeh is not great but it really does not feel the mancanza.Non understand why the canon has decided to put it out of production! Maybe because it makes too much competition to the other fixed the house more expensive? RnAvevo bought this lens to try the focal length of 35, but now I've decided that I'll keep it even if I decide to take the step towards the big brother of the series L.rnVoto: 8.5 / 9RN

Pros: Lightness - Brightness - Price

Cons: When focusing is very fast and accurate

Opinion: I was looking for a lens street, to use in my many outputs "unpretentious", use the + zoom does not satisfy the same way. I waited for the release of the new version, but when I saw it was with the is, and that cost a fortune (in my opinion too, little more x L is used), I took it immediately before they were stocks, 270 euro new. The building is certainly not super, but it is light, and just to be careful, the ring maf I like, did not give me any problems yet. A ta is not sublime, but the photos in low light is not a problem, since 3.5 I like the most, the edges will improve significantly, sticker underneath and has little sharpness in the center instead is always very sharp, very good glass, and in fact there is only one. The focus in normal light is fast and fairly accurate in low light, well it is better to give him a hand in the manual if potete.rnIN CONCLUSION I like the little I paid, and I think I'll keep it x so long, I advice :)

Pros: Affordable, light, compact, relatively clear, bright.

Cons: MAF noisy and not very fast, sharpness is not at the highest levels, blurred strung.

Opinion: It 'a lens that you buy well, great for those who want to try the focal length without investing too much, with the benefits it can offer a fixed, first of all the brightness. rnSi often read that for what it costs is a bargain, I'm not entirely agree, because the lens has several limitations. I think it's a great step for those not using often the focal or want to familiarize yourself with the 35 mm.rnLa sharpness I put both in the pros and in contrast, as already f2 actually is sufficient, but we have no further closing yields high. My point of comparison is the sharpness of the 50 f1.4 I own, offering a gradual sharpness from f .4 to rise. The 35 instead also closing abundantly never reaches high levels (which can affect or less). rnResa good color and contrast, blurred fairly nondescript, but the presence thanks to the good brightness f2. RNLA AF speed is not much but enough to use that is usually done with a 35 mm. I happenedusing it to make a video of me eos 1100d enjoyed the brightness and color rendering, and focheggiando manually to achieve very good results. rnPenso that with the new objectives of the 35 species f2 is soon to be set aside, especially if they will drop slightly in price. rn

Pros: Lightweight and well built. Optimum efficiency even at room temperature. Perfect for street and reportage out / indoor. AF albeit not USM fast and accurate. Unusable side AF points with a 5D MKi.

Cons: Suffer from flare greatly in extreme conditions not yet even if you use the lens hood. AF motor noisy but I really thought worse.

Opinion: I state that I own other optics "L" series of the house but I have to say that the Canon 35mm will not be fixed to the top of the range but does very well. Fast AF and TA in excellent yield. At f / 2 great cuts in the backgrounds. Mm lens from the right people for street and reportage. Just like coma to me. Great for portraits half-length. I was undecided whether to take it or not and now that I've used a whole afternoon not unmount the most from the camera body. We read that sticker enough to F2. I do not seem ... what little instead makes the photos more details. I like also the focus even though under certain conditions it is slightly hard. But even here it is a matter of taste and what you have to do the final product. In conclusion then I have to say that from f5, 6 to f11 is a blade. Excellent color rendering which are not altered. Excellent contrast. In conclusion a obietivo that I think will remain firmly in the 5D for a long tempo.rnConsigliato those who do not want gutted and did not rush to freeze attimmi. It seems to me quite a return to the past with beautiful photos and real. A tridimensionalismo of the past.

Opinion: It 'a focal universal ideal for those traveling with the backpack. Optimum efficiency even with large apertures, but excellent from f. 3.5 and up. The maximum closing it drops a little. He's doing very well at night in low light, even in combination with the AI ??Servo mode for shooting subjects in movimento.rnConsiderato the price, the limited dimensions and the beautiful quality, from consigliare.rn -------- ------------ rnModeste adjustments to the first giudizio.rnPiuttosto good to f. 2 to f. 3.5 also because of the beautiful brightness, from 5.6 to 16 I would say excellent, f. 22 suffers a hint of diffraction but the decline does not appear to me netto.rnIn low light my copy is doing very well, but using only the center AF point, the typical problem of the Canon 5D, I guess. I found this lens almost new and cheap, but also paying it in full is definitely worth serious consideration.

Pros: optical quality, compact size, high brightness, price

Cons: autofocus noisy, blurry not very soft

Opinion: I bought this light on second when we were still using film, and I am still surprised, he did not suffer in the transition to the sensor, except for a slight lateral chromatic aberration easily removed via software. Maybe I was lucky this time, but my copy is very sharp, even at the edges. Already good at f: 2, becomes excellent at f: 5.6. I use it with satisfaction on both the full-size with my D7, which turns into a normal a little 'tight. The quality / price ratio is very favorable, although the project has now dated.

Pros: Image quality, value for money, sharpness at room temperature, weight, compactness.

Cons: Noise and speed AF, focus hard.

Opinion: I purchased it for a week, I use it on 5D II and I'm very satisfied. Sharp already good at room temperature and even at the edges, further improves closed even only half a stop. Color rendering typically Canon has also its weight and compactness, as well as a value for money really interesting with 280 euro you bring home a lens through which you can make a bit 'of everything (from the street, the landscape , half-length portrait in the interior). The build quality is much better than that of fifty, which looks only for its size, and is close to the 85 1.8 (I speak of building materials). Sore spots: the AF is first generation and it is noisy and slow, but good accuracy (I also took with lateral points of the 5D II) and obviously the focus is not that of his older brother (the 35 1.4 L), because it only has 5 blades and is therefore hard. Since this is a wide, distortion is well controlled even though it is not recommended as portrayed by the first floor because-of course-tends to deform the nose just enough. Reading other reviews, I'm thinking that there is some variability from specimen and specimen, because again, in my sharpness is already good even at room temperature and at the edges of FF. Finally, I have not spoken of vignetting (present at f.2) because it removes easily in PP, the same for the AC that are much lower than those-for example-85 1.8. A lens is therefore absolutely be considered, versatile, good performance and above all with a value for money unbeatable.

Pros: Lightweight and compact with good sharpness even at f 2.0

Cons: The engine noise of the focus in very quiet I find it embarrassing (seems to be a trimmer), the build quality leaves something 'to be desired, the focus is not always perfect.

Opinion: I bought this light and used online, because I wanted something that looked like a 50 on my aps-c. Not paid him a lot and I was not very confident and instead I changed my mind: it's low light, or when I want to close-ups from the blurred exaggerated, or simply are out on the street and do not want to run with too many weights, that is jumping out 35mm 2.0. In low light situations has saved me often, it does not cost a blunder and makes. Eye to focus that in fact sometimes it is not very accurate, but otherwise I would recommend it especially as a lens in the 50mm so bright and this quality if they are around.

Pros: Small, lightweight, good-looking, especially in the center crystal clear colors "canon".

Cons: Af noisy, sharpness at the edges of the FF.

Opinion: A little gem, shame about the AF motor that does not value it properly, with a buzz disturbing to say the least, but the image quality is assured. I use it with satisfaction on 7D and 5Dmk2. In cases of brightness is a critical safety. Worth every penny of what it costs (especially if it is used on the 200 euro)!

Opinion: I've had it for some time and then 5d2 5d on a lens really amazing quality and lightweight, produces excellent photos already af/2.0 and chidendo is one or two stops reaches its climax as image quality. AF has a first-generation and somewhat noisy, but precise, suffers from chromatic aberration TA (manageable place in Production). I would recommend this lens on FF to try to use a handyman before passing it to his brother 35L.

Pros: Dimensions, weight, performance on APSC, distortion correction.

Cons: Yield of ff, noise and lack of precision autofocus, poor quality of the blur.

Opinion: The lens is very small and light, ideal to be mounted as a normal optical 550/600d. The center has made you excel on all sizes and at all apertures. The yield at the edges of APSC is also satisfactory to f2, although significantly improves already as low as 2.8. Acting on the edges unfortunately suffer more than the permissible up to 2.8, are beginning to be acceptable to f4 and good for 5.6. To be fair I must say that I have heard different opinions from my ff on, so I would not have had a poor specimen. Very good distortion correction, even the AC is well controlled. The quality of the blur is poor, with a view to light (though moderately wide) would expect better. The small diameter of the front lens does not help to contain the vignetting, especially on ff. The construction is very cheap, but decent. The autofocus is not very accurate and very noisy. Ultimately worth what it costs, certain that the big brother is 1.4 'on a high planet .......
