Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon EF 35mm f/2 Wide Angle Lens for Canon SLR Cameras
Customer Review: Great value
Summary: 4 Stars
Great image quality, the only cons are focusing in low light, and noise(loud). I found the 50mm f1.8 is a little better at focusing in low light without the flash.
With that said, you can adapt to the slow focus the more you use it and still get great shots. Great color and contrast.
Customer Review: Basic 35mm lens
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great low priced prime lens. While it lacks any zoom, it has a great DOF and crisp clear image. It is a bit noisy, but more than makes up for it with quality and small size. Highly recommended entry level lens for quick easy photos, and that old 35mm experience and shot.Customer Review: Good lens
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a good lens. And take nice pictures. After testing it, this lens takes better pictures than the canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0 L. However as far as I am concerned it is still not wide enough (after 1.6x crop factor) for landscapes. It is also kinda noisy.Customer Review: Wife Liked it so much, she sold her zoom lens...
Summary: 4 Stars
Crisp clear pictures and small and compact. She bought a zoom lens she had been drooling over for months. I got her this because she wanted it too. and she liked it better.Customer Review: Good but not as good as 50mm f1.8
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this lens thinking I could match, or surpass the sharpness resolution and contrast range that I get with my 50mm 1.8. Unfortunately I was not as surprised with this lens as I was with the $80.00 50mm. Although this lens is extremely sharp, it is by no means sharper than the 50mm. What really dissapointed me is the contrast. Using my canon 30D, I had to turn up the contrast a few notches just so my pictures would not come out with that pastel look. Even then, allot of my scenic shots were not as saturated as I had hoped even with a lens-hood and polarizer, although these last two items did help a little. For close up indoor/outdoor shots, this is were this lens outshined some of my more expensive lenses. Pictures came out, sharp, crisp and yes well saturated. For an everyday walk-around lens which gives you true 50mm perspective with todays 1.6X cropping factors, this lens is not bad for the money. However, I would not recomend it for "scenic" shots unless you like working with Photoshop.
