so, where is the Canon 35 1.4 II??

[sagittariansrock]

After releasing the EF 11-24 4L, i am waiting for the new ef 35 1.4 II that outperforms the Sigma 35 1.4 Art. Any hints on that?

None of the three wide angle-to-standard focal lenght 'L' primes (24L, 35L & 50L) can match the resolution and IQ needed for the new 50MP bodies. Particularly the 24L and 35L.

Got out of the wrong side of the bed, SP?

The combined LCA and LOCA (exacerbated by field curvature) on the 35L can be at least 13micrometers towards the outer third of the image which equates to about 3x the pixel pitch of the 50.6MP bodies.

Interesting calculation - we'll see with real life samples of a 5ds and a 35L, if anyone dares to combine them. We might see a 50/1.8 though just for kicks :->

Regarding correction in post processing... (from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_aberration )

Do note that I didn't say that CA is a good thing(tm), but imho it can be worked around (not: removed or the detail recovered) that I doubt Canon will update a lens for this reason alone. We probably differ in our belief how important a good lineup of L lenses is for Canon and how much they're willing to invest for this, my argument is the lack of a 35L2 vs. the updated 24L2 all those years.
