I'll second the vote for the Sigma 35 f/1.4 Art. I shoot APS-C, so it's a different beast, but the lens is beautiful, focuses fast, is sharp, and considerably less money than the Canon L version. I would be wary of vignetting. I notice it fairly heavily on my APS-C 60D at 1.4. It clears up for me by f/2, but on FF, it may be heavier.
