It's only missing the L-ifying front UV filterelement that adds contrast & resolution, cancels out CA better than flourite and un-vignettes the image  ;)

Awesome post!!!

I can't wait for "PART 2".... where you paint the rest of the lens white and it transforms into a Super Telephoto lens!  ;D

This makes me want to paint a red ring on my 50mm 1.8 for sh*ts and giggles! I think I just might.

EF-S L would be brilliant...

If it was a 4.0, or a 2.8, or dare I say, 2.0 (for those that don't mind regular L heft).
