Pros: Excellent sharpness, built quality,design, handling,creamy bokeh almost everything.
Cons: None.
Opinion: This lens is perfect for crop sensor considering its equivalent focal length of 56mm on my 7d. I used this as my walk around lens from landscape,portraiture,macro & almost everything. At first i was thinking twice if i will buy this lens because it was very expensive but i was very very happy with the results and forgot that price. I almost forgot I have other lenses because it's always attached to my camera. i have made this opinion before i had no 5D IV. Now i am used it FF what can I say wow wow can express how happy with this lens the versatility, sharpness, color, bokeh, whether seal,mobility almost everything.

Pros:Excellent quality both for resolution and autofocus for a focal length that cannot be renounced
Cons:At the moment I don't see any
Opinion:With a bit of hesitation I have recently replaced the already excellent 35 1.4L first version. I wanted to update this indispensable focal length in a valuable photographic kit. From the first photos compared with the old man I struggled to notice a substantial difference, but then comparing the raw on the screen the extraordinary performance of the second version begins to be noticed, especially at the extremes of the frame. The slight aberration present at TA in mark1 disappears and with mark2 there is greater contrast and definition, a global perception of sharpness over the whole photo. However, I'm talking about slight differences, as the first version I owned was already excellent for an amateur not sick with pixelmania. Still using both the reflex system (which I will not abandon) and the mirrorless, I was also thinking about the 35 R, but reading here and there I realized that it did not improve this 35 ii, although adding some functions that only videomakers appreciated. On the contrary, the R version has a greater vignetting and distortion, ok correctable in the camera or with software. In addition, with a greater outlay of money, so except for a few cases (50-85) the R versions have not improved much the corresponding EF versions as far as fixed focal lengths are concerned. This mk2, despite already having about ten years since its debut, remains a reference for this focal length, to be compared perhaps with the Zeiss Milvus 35 1.4 only but which however is and remains a manual focus albeit mechanically, like all Zeiss, at the state of the art.
Opinion:Lens with really good features especially for professional use. Excellent sharpness and a soft bokeh. I also use this lens to make macros (rings) preferring it to the canvases I have in my backpack (85/135). It is fast and quiet. The only flaw is that the hood seems to be a number one chinoiserie! The weight is not a cons, the price maybe yes but now it is much less. I would replace it only with the RF version that I hope will come out soon maybe more macro and IS
Opinion:Excellent optics, three-dimensional, beautiful blur, destined to be always mounted. Great for the street but also for the portraits. Absolute precision with closed diaphragm. The weight is important but adequate to the type of lens. Excellent combination with the Canon R with adaptor. The optics can not miss in the Canon kit. The cost is not excessive for what it offers.
Pros:Sturdy and well done; Heavy, but light to be a 35mm f1.4; Sharpness character at full aperture; Simple and ergonomic use
Cons:Plastic lens hood, metal was better; Important dimensions.
Opinion:As a lens is great and weight, but you need to make some considerations: the lenses from 35mm to aperture F1, 4 for reflex, are all big and weights. But this compared to the Zeiss Milvus that I used for a long time, is much lighter. As far as size is concerned, it is true that a small lens is better, but I find that large ones are easier to handle: they give more stability when you grab the camera. This is a purely personal opinion because I have big hands, but that obviously goes to the detriment of weight and clutter. The 35mm lens for me is irreplaceable and has always been the fulcrum around which I have always made my choices. Until just now I had the 35mm F2 is, of which I was more than happy, but this optically was an unexpected surprise. I never thought I'd find all this difference. Quietly holds the comparison with the Milvus 35mm f1.4. Probably the pure quality of the Zeiss is better, but at certain levels it counts more the taste of the absolute performance and in this case I must say that this Canon I find it beautiful. The yield of the blurred is very beautiful, the colors are dense and plastic, the light-dark well modulated makes an excellent relief effect and all this in a way quite similar to the Zeiss. The surrender to all openness is truly exceptional and gives it its specific character. If you grant me the license, I would say that the photo with the 35mm f1.4 full aperture is everything except perfect, but in much like other Canon lenses, are beautiful, even more than when you use them to intermediate diaphragms of work.
