Canon EF 24 f/1.4 II
November 29th, 2008 Posted in Canon Lenses
Coming soon
Amazon has the lens coming sometime in the next 4 to 7 weeks. I have mine ordered. Do you?
I’m usually not first in line for a lens, but I do really want a 24. Lenses like this is also why I don’t shoot Nikon. :)

Man, this is a lot of money for this lens. I think I’ll be sticking with 24 1.4L 1, thank you.

I agree with CR to why I only shoot with Canon. I have the EF 35mm f/1.4 L USM, EF 85mm f/1.2 II L USM, and EF 135mm f/2 L USM. Nikon doesn’t have good glasses in prime. Now I’m looking to purchase this glass as well. One day, I hope to get EF 200mm f/2 L IS USM when the price go down (current price tag at B&H $4,999.00).

What is the primary use of a lens like this?

my 24 is my main lens. I shoot a lot of interiors and architectural. I also like to use it for portraits with lots of background. It is great for subjects on the beach and such.
I don’t have any complaints with the first 24 1.4L so I’ll keep using it until the price of this one comes down a bit.

It is also very popular with photo journalist and that is probably why Canon updated this along side the 5D2.

Why produce this when there is STILL no decent 28mm? Canon’s logic defeats me :o(
