  1. Incredible Lens!!!

    10/10
    Reviewer: ds76, PriceGrabber

    I bought it for my Canon 40D. No regret at all. It is pretty sharp and focuses really fast. It is very well built but not as heavy as the 85mm F1.2L. It is one of the least expensive “L” lenses. It takes time to get used to the 1.6X crop if you use it with none-full frame body. But don’t worry about the focus. It is fast and accurate. The color is so rich and you will think the image is taken from a German lens. Read more

    • Sharp!!!Sharp!!!Sharp!!! Great Colors and Contrast!!!Excellent Bokeh!!!
    • None at all, but I would like to see it comes with IS. The lens hood is awkward to carry around.
