Personally I prefer the rendering from the 35L Mark 1. The 35L Mark II is slightly better corrected but is just not as magical as the Mk 1.

Plenty of people feel the same way. Julia Trotti, for example, is keeping both her 35L Mk 1 and 2 because the Mk 1 has a “special” rendering. I’m sure that what she means by special is that it has kicks out tremendous 3D Pop whereas the Mk II is a touch more clinical and a bit flatter. See the 9:40 time stamp in the video below where she discusses both lenses.
