    Re: AF issues....

    Re: AF issues....

    I myself can't explain as well. When I visited one of my local stores, I tried the "legendary" Distagon 21mm/2.8 & the Makro Planar 50mm/2. I must say that the images are really impressive & gives...

    Re: Canon 50mm 1.4 MKII?

    Having Ring USM rather than micro USM might probably increase its AF speed & accuracy! It could definitely need an aspherical element or a UD element just like the Sigma 50mm1.4 which starts out...
