Review on Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L USM Wide Angle Lens for Canon SLR Cameras - White Box (Brand New in Bulk Packaging) by Michael Baek ᠌

In addition to 85 1,2, it solves all the problems that arise in terms of a set of required focal lengths on a full matrix for portrait shooting. The blur is very pleasant and not familiar (for the better) for such a focal one! Very carefully with single half-length portraits - you should not come closer, distortions begin to appear. Perfectly conveys the volume of the picture, especially when shooting children. When buying, I tested 2 lenses - both are inferior to 1.6 in sharpness by 1.4. I didn’t notice this during practical shooting, because I’m not a fan of brick walls! Focuses very quickly, but not as tenaciously and accurately as 85 1.2 (for secondary points). I bought it after 85 1.2, and, of course, I was less impressed with the 35 1.4 picture (apparently I'm starting to get used to the good), but it categorically differs from all zooms in the image - colors, micro-contrast, flu, sharpness and again colors . I think you need to get used to it, learn how to use this focal point (in my case, for a portrait), and from the technical side, it will help 100% to realize a creative idea. In addition to vignetting (on a clear blue sky), optical distortions do not strain absolutely, and the image is very pleasing! Especially at home - it just became regular! In general, I am very pleased with the purchase - I will continue to master it!
