Before you tell me Paper-Thin-DOF is Cinematic, spend a day at your local Multiplex. How many of the Top-Ten films (the movies people line-up to see) feature Paper-Thin-DOF ???

Saw Prometheus yesterday. Only 2 shots with small DOF.
So, paper-thin-dof is photographic, not cinematic ;D

Even for photography I love my old Tessar 45mm f/2.8 ;-) Unfortunetly there is no focusing screen with split-screen for my 5D.

i got one for my 5Dmk2 to use with MF lenses
noncho:
Well, I would like to compare MTF with my nearest 2.8 prime - EF-s 60 2.8 macro:
No comment, I'll wait for real pics from 40 2.8.
Stuart:
Its quoted at £229.00 in the UK - £199 in the US.
As a straight conversion this should be £128.
That extra £100 is the difference between me buying it and not buying it.
It seems as if Canon consistently wants the UK to pay more for their lenses.
I love the canon product designers, but hate their marketing department.
