Yes | Total Spent: $1,170.00| Rating: 10    Pros: On a full-frame body, this is a wonderful landscape lens. Cons: None! Very very sharp and wonderful colors...1.4 sharpness is incredible and I couldn't notice any distortion.

Yes | Total Spent: None indicated| Rating: 9    Pros: Very fast wide angle, build quality Cons: You have to pay the price for its qualities... I had the opportunity to try this lens when looking for a fast normal prime for my 350D (Rebel XT). I didn't intend to buy it because of the price, but also because using it on a crop body was paying the price and weight for a very fast wide angle lens, whereas I would use it like a ~40mm, that should be light, cheap and easy to design... Basically, I've been really impressed by the L build quality and feeling. The contrast and colors were really great, sharpness was just good at 1.4 but got much better past f:2 This lens really makes sense on a full frame body and is not really exciting on a crop body, but the cropped part I saw was realy good... perpera Registered: October 2005 Posts: 13 Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L USM review by perpera Review Date: 11/23/2006 Would you recommend the product?
