A lovely bit of glass

Re: A lovely bit of glass

Key elements of the 1.4 version. It is weather sealed, and the IS more than makes up for the 1/3 stop in many uses of the lens.  I love this lens, and think it is a 5.  The AF is much faster than the 1.2 by all reviews I have seen (I have never used a 1.2 so can't say personally).  I don't think it is as fast as a 70-200, but still the 1.2 has a reputation as being quite slow.
