Re: Denial?

I have the 35F2 IS and like it. Check out what LensRentals says about the Canon and Sigma F1.4s:

i am impartial on this one, but the only % that matters is the lens that you get. For example, if an illness is so rare that it affects .001% of the population, that is not relevant if you get it.

My own experience tells me that there can be good and bad models of a lens. My first Sigma 50 Macro lens (back in the 1980s) came with a misaligned mount, so that photos were so overexposed that no image was visible. It was fixed by Sigma. I now have a Sigma digital 50 macro that is fine. A 50 % success rate suggests multiple explanations...you take your pick. The glass is either half full or half empty.
