Why is there a lot of hate against the Canon 35mm f1.4/L? I just purchased one and thought it produces fantastic photos. Albeit I am on a T5i...



I am waiting to see if the 7d Mk2 comes out in September, or will probably drop on a Canon 6d...

Which makes it kind of ironic considering the image was shot with a 35L lens on a T5i...

I just bought a 6d. Will be here tomorrow :dance:

Maybe it's a work-assigned laptop and he has no control over it. Maybe his work screen doesn't have hdmi. Why are you looking down on someone just because they aren't staying on the cutting edge of technology? Personally, based on what little I know of you two, I'd say he's the smarter man since it would appear that he knows his laptop is good enough and that there is no reason to blow a bunch of money on something he doesn't need. Also there is nothing to indicate he is a boss.

It's not his office. His actual desk is piled with paperwork. But that is our ideology at work, no need to spend more on technology if it works and continues to make our work efficient by running the programs we need it do!

Certain people are weirdly loyal to Canon even when it comes to lenses that are twice the price of other lenses that are actually better.

Just browse the Canon Rumors forums for a little bit. It's sacrilege to even suggest a Sigma or Tamron sometimes.

Proof (see my post, one page back re: Canon 35mm 1.4). I personally am just weirded out using other brands other than Canon, because I don't like running the risk of having stupid poo poo like dirty connectors causing my lens to stop auto-focusing. I tried the Tamron 17-50 and the thing just poo poo on me one day and I said I would never use non-Canon lenses again. Then again I hate money so
