Canada | No way. The 35L is one of the best primes Canon has and it doesn't need replacing |

ON, Canada | Apparently some have had trouble focusing with that lens on the Mk3s. Possibly related to the fast, wide nature of the lens along with the new AF system...possibly field curvature? |

Most likely people who don't know how to shoot with fast primes. I've been using my 35L on my 1d3 without any problems. Hasn't missed the focus once yet...literally. |

I watched with much amusement as a fellow Pentaxian bought no fewer than 5 different M 50 f1.4 or M 50 1.7's because they 'thought' the lenses were faulty. In the end he stopped buying them and simply said he ahd a good one but, later revealed that 'maybe' the focus issues were his own. People don't seemt o understand that the FOV is so damn narrow at those large apertures. |

I guess we'll see soon enough why they replaced it, assuming this is true. It has been out of stock for months almost everywhere. |

It's almost always out of stock, but I guess we'll see what Canon has up their sleeve. |

The only reason I can think of is that the original glass contained lead, but the original glass was lead-free thorium glass... |
