Curious how many '7D and nicer' body owners with let's say 10+ Canon EF/EF-S lenses opted into buying either of the EF / EF-S pancake offerings. My guess is over half. Dirt-cheap, sharp as hell, and a chance to experience our 'chunkier' rigs in lighter / more discreet context.
Yet those same people likely have f/2.8 zooms or even faster primes that cover those pancake FLs -- and those lenses have IS, USM, distance scales, and they are not FBW.
So I'm guessing those two pancake lenses get forgotten a lot. Not for lack of value but because we have better overall options.
