Hi folks,

looking for a little guidance.

Background. I have a 6D with a 24-70 f4, 40 2.8 and 50 1.4 and a range of longer L glass

I am looking for advise as to purchase a 35 1.4 or a 35 f2 for the nigh time walk around lens.

For day time I might sell the 24-70 f4 and buy the 24-105 STM 3.5.-5.6.

Thoughts please?

Please forget the Canon and consider the Sigma 35mm 1.4. Newer design, sharper images, better image quality, better value.

Your claims is completely false.

I have never found a wide angle prime sharper than the 35L.  The sigma you mentioned is too soft, not razor sharp.  None of the 8 copies I tried came close to the 35L.
