Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM in Stock

no sorry I don't. I'm toying with idea of converting my 5D Mk I to IR, so if this is a suitable lens it might make me take the leap, as my other lenses are apparently susceptible to hot spots.

Just got mine this morning from Videoguys (Australia). It appeared in stock (registered to get a notification once it's available) on Monday afternoon so ordered it in a snap. BTW it's made in Malaysia.

It's a sensational lens, though I expected it to be quieter/quicker when focusing. Canon should have designed it with IS, it would have been the best lens ever.

It's a bit heavier than it looks like. It slightly made the 550D tilt forward. On the 5DII it's just perfect.

Here's a quick snap I took with the 5DII (only resized to half with DXO, no other effects). Mind the wall on the left hand side, it's not the lens.

BTW, I just ordered one from Videoguys, currently out of stick, 7-14days for canon to get them.
