Hello,

Is anyone farmilier with the Canon EF 35mm 1.4 L USM?

I bought one that I quickly exhanged because the focus ring was loose/woobly. The new example has exactly the same problem. The serial numbers for both are very close to each other so I ordered one from another store. The serial number is completely differtent and this example also had the wobbly focus ring.

See for example this video: https://t.co/Aed9pPBAXa

Is this something that is normal with this model or am I just getting bad copy's?

Same issue on the version II of this lens that I have. I don't think it's a defect. Just the way it is.
