Fast 35mm wide-angle lens. With a minimum focusing distance of only 0.8 ft. (25cm), you can approach the subject closer and still obtain a more natural wide-angle effect. You can even obtain good background blur for portraits. An affordable lens that’s ideal for tasks like group photos and other applications calling for excellent optical performance and moderately wide focal length. It’s compact and lightweight, and with f/2.0 speed, it’s a compelling alternative to a wide-angle zoom lens for low-light shooting. Wide and Fast
If you need an ultra-wide angle and a large aperture, one of the following lenses will fit the bill. Ultra-wide-angle lenses can capture scenes beyond your natural field of vision. The EF 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye, the widest of them all, has a 180° angle of view. For more normal-looking wide-angle shots, there are longer wide-angle lenses up to 35mm with the maximum aperture you need.

 | | Optically superb | September - 01 - 2010 | | |
by R. Cong-leton (Mr. Cong) from East Orange,NJ
Though this lens is an older mecanical design without the ultrasonic motor for virtually instant, silent focus, it more than makes up for any supposed short- comings with superb optical performance. Even wide open, it will perform on par or in many cases out resolve lenses costing considerably more, and all this at a price less than even independant manufactured lenses with a more modern, robust construction.
Other factors in its favor are its small size and light weight, both due to the construction materials ( mostly plastic ) and and older focusing motor. Though no where near as well made and glamourous as an 'L' lens, the primary reason to purchase this lens is a need for its angle of view and image resolving power, and here it rates a solid "10", or 5 stars. Little matters more than that.

This lens is the best for Food and Electronic Gadget Photography. Especially on cropped camera, the distance became standard, it is very easy to take food dishes in low light situation without stand up, backwards, or lean toward to the food. It is also perfect for taking picture for your electronic gadgets and personal wears such as cellphone, portable game console, portable music players, headphones, watches, cameras, video cameras, jewelries, craft, and anything you can set on table.
Before I purchase this lens, I have heard many reviews that said the motor of this lens is very noisy. After I tried it, I found it was totally fine. It does make some funny high pitch sound, but it doesn't sound very bad and very loud. I think it is totally acceptable.
To my point of view. The build body is much better than EF 50mm f/1.8, and just a little bit weaker than EF 28mm f/1.8 USM. This lens can offer more vivid color than EF 28mm f/1.8 USM. I own them both. If you are considering to get either 28mm or 35mm, I think this 35mm is your better choice because it is cheaper, lighter, and does better jobs.
Oeverall, EF 35mm F/2 is a great lens. It is very tiny, very light, very inexpensive, and does great jobs. I think this is the must have lens if you own any Canon DSLR.

I just got this lens a couple days ago, and so far I love the results I'm getting. I have a Canon Digital Rebel T1i and was upgrading my lens from the kit lens, and a 50mm f/1.8. Being that I don't have a full frame camera, I love that this lens is giving me a 56mm perspective. I don't see myself taking this lens off my camera anytime soon. Upgrading from the lenses I did, the quality of my pictures seem better with this 35mm lens. It has great bokeh with the f/2, and the sound of it focusing isn't that bad. Definitely not any louder then my plastic fantastic 50mm f/1.8. The construction seems good and sturdy.
If you're contemplating buying this lens, and you're on a budget...just stop and buy this one!

I began my photo adventures with a Canon 50mm 1.4 on a 30D, followed by a Canon 10-22 and a Canon 70-200 f4, all of them great, but I felt I was missing the "normal" focal length (50mm on 35mm film or digital full frame); the options were a zoom that covered the range (such as Tamron AF 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di-II LD SP ZL Aspherical (IF) Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras), the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras, which was way out of my budget, a prime such as this Canon 35mm f2 or wilder options such as the Zeiss Ikon 35mm f/2 Distagon T* ZE Manual Focus Standard Lens for Canon EOS SLR Cameras or the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L USM Wide Angle Lens for Canon SLR Cameras both for a considerable price. After much thought I got this lens and love it: It's physically small, the autofocus is not USM so it buzzes a little (but nothing to worry about, it's not a huge noise or anything like that) but works very well and you can get good shots wide open at f2; By the time I had finally made up my mind its price went from about $260 to $320... But it's still worth it. Some alternatives from Sigma looked interesting but they have a bad reputation for quality control and I just couldn't take the risk... It's unfortunate they haven't thought of offering an international warranty (I checked locally).
I also got the Canon EW65II Lens Hood for Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 & EF 35mm f/2 SLR Lenses, which snaps into place and can be mounted in a reversible manner, and will also get a transparent/UV filter for protection (it's always better to shoot without filters unless they are for special effects such as a polarizer, but it gives me greater peace of mind and I try to take it off if possible). If you're still on the fence I would highly recommend it.
| | | | | | Good Image Quality - Frustrating Auto Focus | Febuary - 10 - 2010 | | |
by Ryan E. Duncan from Milwaukee, WI United States
I bought this lens because I wanted a good, fast prime lens for indoor use on my 50D. I also own the EF 50mm f/1.4 which I love, but indoors I find it less useful due to the crop frame sensor of the 50D.
I knew I wanted something in the wide angle range (due to the 1.6x crop frame of the camera) so I looked at the EF 28mm f/1.8 USM and the EF 35mm f/2.0. Based on reviews here at Amazon as well as outside websites I decided to go with the 35mm f/2.0 because the 28mm seems to have consistently negative reviews. I was also able to pick up this 35mm for about $130 less than the 28mm so it seemed to be a better investment.
I have now had the 35mm for about 1 month and taken over 300 photos with it on my camera. All in all I am happy with the lens and it has been on my camera nearly the whole time I have owned it. The images are sharp and the color is good. This is a fast lens and you can get some great bokeh when you open it up wide which is nice when you want to get creative with your photos.
However, I am more than frustrated with the auto focusing with this lens. It does not seem to want to focus on the subject of the frame, many images end up out of focus if I let the camera do all of the work. When left to its own devices, many times this lens will not produce images that are in focus, or at east not what you wanted in focus.
The only way I can get the great photos that this lens is capable of is when I take control of the focusing points and select exactly what I want in focus for each shot. This is not overly difficult and I am used to it because I am generally selecting the desired auto focus point for each shot, but this lens seems to be abnormally challenged at focusing on the desired subject on its own.
This has been a major disappointment because unfortunately I know that when someone else (who is not familiar with how to use the camera) picks it up it is 50/50 whether the photo turns out, especially in low light situations.
I feel that this is a problem if you are looking at this lens to be a good all around indoor prime for candids and family shots and especially if you want to be in some of the photos.
This is a good lens if you are familiar with how to use the auto focus selectivity features of your camera. The image quality is good, similar to the 50mm f/1.4, and definately better than any kit lens you may have, but don't expect to put this lens on your camera and never have to learn how to really use it on your camera.
