preview: Canon EF 35mm f/2 USM IS
#11
I'm curious: How did you feel the difference in use? What was more pleasant to handle?

#12
Well, the Sigma feels more substantial for sure. I don't think that this matters though.

The Canon has a light-speed AF which makes a difference maybe.

Given their overall characteristics they are different but similar in desirability.

Personally I'd probably lean towards the Sigma due to a bitingly sharp center (better than in the Nikon test) even at f/1.4.

I'm afraid to mention that this test has to wait till Tuesday ... I forgot to upload the distortion chart and I'm not in the office till Tuesday ...

sorry

Speaking of bokeh... TDP did a good side-by-side comparison of several 35mm lenses in their Sigma 35/1.4 review:

That is not a good bokeh test, but a highlights test....

Yes, this matches with my findings.

The 35/2IS has its own set of weaknesses though.
