I agree with everything you said about this lens. I've been using one for the past couple of years with my 6D as my everyday walk around lens. It's sharp and IS is a bonus, IMO it makes up for being a little slower than 35 f/1.4 lenses of all manufacturers!
Cool. There is also a 24mm version amzn.to/2IXeWya if you need wider than 35mm on a crop sensor, only downside is that it's f2.8 whereas the 35mm is f2. But great lenses cause of the IS if doing any handheld work
i had no idea that existed holy shit what thats crazy, i love that its IS ahah i have a 24mm pancake lens and i treat it like a 35mm crop even if its closer to a 38mm and i wanted to have a 35mm and 50mm combo which is basically a 24mm and 35mm on a crop (56mm) because i use the canon sl2 and i love the size but with all this effort it seems better to just go full frame and save up for those versions but its great to know that it has IS i've learned that IS saves the shot no matter what
Ray Ortega hey Ray, thanks for the review. Chris can you chime in also? I’m starting a podcast type setup in my home. Mostly just me telling stories on camera with some b roll cut into the footage. Do you have any recommendations for what focal length would be good for indoors? Would you go with a 24 and 35 primes or do you think the sigma 18-35 is the best choice? I have a lot of lenses but mostly f 4 and I don’t think it would work well for my needs. Please let me know which focal length would you suggest for indoor video, interview setup? Thanks again!!
Budo practice in Japan thanks for the heads-up! I added in the track used in the short piece at the end, it's “Morning Motivation” by ARTiria Productions available at PremiumBeat bit.ly/1BJbspm
+Laugh To Success it will be the full frame equivalent of a 56mm lens crop senors are actually closer to super 35mm sensor size (cinema camera sensor size) you won't get as much shallow depth of field as full frame DSLR but it will be close enough and most feature films don't even shoot below F.4 anyway because pulling focus at wider apertures is a pain in the ass that is where lighting comes in it may look like f.2.8 or in some cases 1.8 when in fact it is f.4 this lens damn near perfect for everyday shooting
I imagine the IS will be bit more impressive on a full frame where get away with the crop (zoom) factor. It's probably one of the most interesting Canon lenses as 35mm is a great field of view, and IS & f/2 are great additions. For some silly reason I still don't own a Canon 35 while almost all my analog shots are Minolta 35/2.8.
Thanks. The wider the shot the better the stabilization for sure. It's probably not the best lens but overall it packs a nice punch putting together a lot of cool elements.
Ray I'm buying a 80D is there a wider one - say 24mm equivalent - or will I be able to hand hold at that length. I use FF at the moment I can hand hold in video at 24m at that focal length.
how you're doing i'm cliff and i love taking pictures i want your opinion on something i wanted to ask you what's the difference between full frame and asp=c camera? i want to buy 2 camera bodies and give my old canon 400d to ny niece. i love the 80d and the 90d and i love the canon 5d mark 4 but i'm trying to buy one at a good price i want your opinion on buying a few lens 1. tamron 18-400 2. sigma 17-50 3. tamron 10-24 4. canon 50mm 5. canon 18-135 nanotechnology i want to nuy all of these lenses so help me out
hi ray, I had a plan to buy this lens, but iget issue about a 30mm art that is having a vignette, can i ask do i still have a vignetting on this lens too? or i'ts not good for Full Frame camera,.thank you ray,
Your reviews are super helpful. I eventually got my hands on the 35mm f2 and I found it to be super versatile for my travel and street needs as well as run n gun filming! Uploaded my own review too. I agree, the main thing is the Image Stabilisation, such a killer!
Zack Corley the XHA1 does let you attach other lenses. Unless you have an adapter that you bought for attaching other lenses to the lens that is on the body. This would work with any Canon adapter but it would also need the electronic controls to adjust the aperture.
Hi and thanks for the video. I use the Canon 70d (crop), with the canon ef 40mm (Pancake) and till then has been working, once i shoot people/half body/portraits, in a smal studio, and dont have to stay with my back as close as it gets to the wall, how it was for example with the Canon 50mm f/1.8... My question would be if getting this ef 35mm f/2, would i get some advantage in comparison to the 40mm (pancake)? If yes could you please tell me how or what would be? Im just looking forward to upgrade my lens kit, using the canon 70d cam, by getting a not so expensive new one, but still get some upgrade/advantage in comparison to the ones i already have - the ef 40mm and the 50mm 1.8 (as i said before, this one has a good quality, but my small studio doenst allow me to go that far to get teh ideal shoots... Thanks very much
Zizi Possi Marquinhos Vital probably not. It won't be much wider. They have a 28mm version which would give you a little more room to work with but is probably not good for portraits as the wider you the wider it will make your subject look www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/843011-USA/Canon_5179B002_EF_28mm_f_2_8_IS.html/prm/alsVwDtl/BI/5841/KBID/6710 (referral link). The main advantage of this lens is for video shooters who want to handhold their camera and get a wider aperture all while remaining compact.
Now, I wish I got this instead of the Sigma 30 mm Art lens I got (without image-stabilization and a crop-sensor-only lens). But I do like the ability to go as far down as f/1.4.
Hi Ray! Nice review and this is very timely, because i was looking to get one! What's your opinion between this 35mm and the sigma 30mm 1.4 ART? (I just saw that you got one, in the gear used to make your video!) It will be really great to know, if both are approximately same and also i heard lot of bad things about the front and back AF focus on Sigma lenses mounted on Canon DSLR, who aren't really resolved with the sigma dock unfortunately.. Keep up the great work and thanks in advance. J
Thanks, Julian. This 35 is so great because it has IS and still a fast aperture. But if you don't need IS, the 30mm ART is a great lens as well. I think the quality is probably too close to tell between the two, at least to me, but both are great lenses. I personally would rather have the IS but if you need 1.4 the 30mm might be the answer.
Something else I just thought of, this Canon (links in the description) is also full frame! So if you ever moved up to a full frame sensor, this lens would move with you. The Sigma is for crop sensors only.
Yes, definitely! The fact that's it's an EF mount is great and play a lot in his favor!! Then, the IS option is very appreciated and also all the great feeback on the 70D.. Thanks for your quick reply Ray and keep up the good work.
Great reviews! Thank you for your helpful videos, they are very resourceful. In your opinion, what is a good quality wireless lapel microphone for a T3i that won't break the bank?
David Gibson : Elevation is a Must thanks! For wireless I don't really have a recommendation that is cheap. I haven't seen a cheap option that is worth it yet. I like the Sennheisers that I use. You might want to think about going with a wired lav and recorder combo and just syncing the audio in post production. This makes you wireless. It's a little more work but is even better than wireless in terms of quality and performance (no potential for RF interference). One nice option for this is using this mic podhelp.me/SmartLavPlusBH with your smartphone as the recorder.
Mario C. Castillion Thanks! All the gear I used in this video including the light and microphone is listed and link in the description. I do that for every video I make just in case you are wondering what I used on another video too. Appreciate the kind words!
+T.J. Brown hard to say. People really love the Sigma for its sharpness but I generally don't shoot charts and all of that. To me the video coming out of both looks great and it depends more on if you need the image stabilization or not.
Great stuff! New Subscriber! Ray, I am a dentist and we like to shoot video of procedures for teaching and documentation. We have a T4i and 70D. Currently we have a 100mm Canon 2.8 Macro lens for our still images. What would you recommend for the video? We are investing in some nice tripods so we can have shots mounted stationary. Your thoughts appreciated.
+Wesley Mullins awesome, thanks Wesley! A video lens will just depend on what focal length you need. Really wide, medium, tight shot etc. And of course budget. That macro lens will obviously be great for extreme close ups and detail shots. I like this Tamron for getting really wide ua-cam.com/video/keNgbrQWi3Q/v-deo.html&lc=z121the4flbtjnrz504cfzprgsfss11h0zo0k and a 30mm like you see in this video is nice for small spaces where you need a head and shoulders shot and I use this 30mm the most podhelp.me/sig30mm1-4bh
There's an IS switch on the lens and your 6D will also likely tell you that IS is on which you can activate in the menu and may be displayed on the LCD as a hand icon or something similar.
+Don according to the links in the description (which I always include cause I always forget;)) I used an old version of this lens podhelp.me/S30mm1-4ArtAmazon
hi, great video thanks. I have a crop camera and at the moment have 50mm 1.8 stm but want wider lens for indoors. would you recommend 35mm IS usm or 28mm Is usm? I will also be doing videos here and there. thank you
Great review! I really enjoyed watching your video....A) it was informative and B) you kept it short and simple. Now I'm really geared towards buying this canon instead of Sigma's version and even more likely to buy this over the L series 35mm. Also I think this an EF lens as opposed to a EF-S lens. Sigma's mount for Canon bodiies specify whether it need be a full frame or crop APS-C. ..... I think.
+Ydkoll thanks! This is a great lens that you don't hear enough about but it's really good. This lens will cover a full sensor but that means it will also work on APS-C too which is what I used it on.
the best lenses for videography are: 1- sigma 18-35mm f1.8 DG HSM Art 2- Canon 17-55mm f2.8 is usm 3- Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 SP Di VC 4- Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 SP Di VC but if you have a lot of money, you can change the list above by this one: 1- Canon 16-35mm f2.8 L iii ( new version) 2- Canon 24-70mm f2.8 Lii USM 3- Canon 70-200mm f2.8 iS Lii USM if you have these lenses, you are the king. try to see some reviews, comparison and video tests and you will see by yourself. remark: don't forget to buy the B+W UV ,CPL and ND filters for awesome video results. Good luck..
+555 Gear depends on what you're shooting I guess. If you need to be handheld then you definitely want an IS lens. Otherwise 1.4 gives you an even larger aperture which is always nice to have. Both are great looking lenses, sharp images.
I don't think they make the model I have anymore but this one is similar and more affordable, same company, you'll also see different versions amzn.to/2G3j1Pg
This lens is wonderful. I use it on a full frame and the image quality is superb. I compared it with the sigma 35 f1.4 art and decided to sell sigma. Canon is just better. Here's my review of this lens (in russian): olegasphoto.com.ua/index.php/obzor-canon-ef-35mm-f2-is-usm-vs-sigma-35-1-4-art/
Anyone shoot with this lens on the sony a7s?? It's sharper than the rokinon 35mm cine as well plus has IS which seems like it would pair very nicely with the a7s.
+Gary Lewis the only problem is the adapters to connect it to the A7s. I was not very happy with any I tried especially for the price, they should work better.
Thanks Ray, I wish someone would take the videos with ambient sounds. I would like to "hear" the lens. I am interested in recording the life around us, not just music backgrounds
cool thanks for the respond, i saw your video on the canon 80D , in the 4 past year i have the canon 550D + EFS 18-135 lense + sigma ef 50mm 1.4 usm and i want to upgrade, you think that the canon 80D with this lense will be a good combination?
Video was shot in many parts so the settings are always different but I was using the 70D and this is how I set it up ua-cam.com/video/fYVHbBkArJA/v-deo.html
Good looking footage at the end there. 9 years later, I'm finally getting one of these 🤣
Thanks, and the beauty of lenses is they don't really go out of date..enjoy the new glass!
It’s interesting this lens is stabilized. I wish camera companies would make more stabilized prime lenses, not just zooms.
I agree with everything you said about this lens. I've been using one for the past couple of years with my 6D as my everyday walk around lens. It's sharp and IS is a bonus, IMO it makes up for being a little slower than 35 f/1.4 lenses of all manufacturers!
Thanks for the feedback!
I was thinking of getting the 30mm 1.4 but I think this would be the best choice for me because it’s stability thank you so much!!
Cool. There is also a 24mm version amzn.to/2IXeWya if you need wider than 35mm on a crop sensor, only downside is that it's f2.8 whereas the 35mm is f2. But great lenses cause of the IS if doing any handheld work

Budo practice in Japan thanks for the heads-up! I added in the track used in the short piece at the end, it's “Morning Motivation” by ARTiria Productions available at PremiumBeat bit.ly/1BJbspm
Ray Ortega Thanks a lot!
just get it. this lens rocks. it is the future. I cannot wait to see the IS move through the lineup, 50mm next up I suppose.
I have a Canon 60D and I know it has a crop sensor. However, with this lens will it video full frame?
+Laugh To Success it will be the full frame equivalent of a 56mm lens crop senors are actually closer to super 35mm sensor size (cinema camera sensor size) you won't get as much shallow depth of field as full frame DSLR but it will be close enough and most feature films don't even shoot below F.4 anyway because pulling focus at wider apertures is a pain in the ass that is where lighting comes in it may look like f.2.8 or in some cases 1.8 when in fact it is f.4 this lens damn near perfect for everyday shooting
Closer in size to a Super 35mm sensor (APS-C) however there is a pretty noticeable difference in dynamic range in a Canon 80D vs Canon C100
I imagine the IS will be bit more impressive on a full frame where get away with the crop (zoom) factor. It's probably one of the most interesting Canon lenses as 35mm is a great field of view, and IS & f/2 are great additions.
For some silly reason I still don't own a Canon 35 while almost all my analog shots are Minolta 35/2.8.

There is a 24 podhelp.me/24mmCanonISEF but of course that's on a crop sensor
Ray Ortega thanks Ray - just getting to grips with Canon range - EF is full frame and EF-S is crop :-)
how you're doing i'm cliff and i love taking pictures i want your opinion on something i wanted to ask you what's the difference between full frame and asp=c camera? i want to buy 2 camera bodies and give my old canon 400d to ny niece. i love the 80d and the 90d and i love the canon 5d mark 4 but i'm trying to buy one at a good price i want your opinion on buying a few lens
1. tamron 18-400
2. sigma 17-50
3. tamron 10-24
4. canon 50mm

hi ray, I had a plan to buy this lens, but iget issue about a 30mm art that is having a vignette, can i ask do i still have a vignetting on this lens too? or i'ts not good for Full Frame camera,.thank you ray,
Correct, the 30mm is an APS-C lens. This lens however covers full frame.
Your reviews are super helpful. I eventually got my hands on the 35mm f2 and I found it to be super versatile for my travel and street needs as well as run n gun filming! Uploaded my own review too. I agree, the main thing is the Image Stabilisation, such a killer!
Glad you liked it!
Ray Ortega 😊😊of course
What about the AF noise? Does that ever wind up on your sound if you have the mic near the camera?
I'd like to see it in video mode on the 80d if you fancy doing a video of that. Wide open daytime and low light please.
Insert the noon question. Is this only for DSLR cameras? I'm looking for a great but affordable 35 mm lens for a Canon XHA1.
Zack Corley the XHA1 does let you attach other lenses. Unless you have an adapter that you bought for attaching other lenses to the lens that is on the body. This would work with any Canon adapter but it would also need the electronic controls to adjust the aperture.
Would you say this would be great on the C100??
Very helpful review. The footage was pretty convincing!

What strap do I see in the video, and is that what you normally use?
Subbed!
+Henrik Karlsson thanks for the sub, Henrik! This is a Black Rapid strap and yes this is my primary strap when I'm out and about.
Ray Ortega Ok thx. I'm looking for a strap and it's super hard to decide which one.
Of this was like a 12 or 18mm that would be amazing :)
How would you compare this to the Sigma 18-35?

Is the IS useless if you're shooting photography? I'm hearing mixed bags of things
it sure is useful, it helps to get stable images
May I know is there any indication that the IS is on ? I’m using this lens on my canon 6d thanks
There's an IS switch on the lens and your 6D will also likely tell you that IS is on which you can activate in the menu and may be displayed on the LCD as a hand icon or something similar.
great video and friendly presence! what lens are you using to film yourself speaking?
+Don according to the links in the description (which I always include cause I always forget;)) I used an old version of this lens podhelp.me/S30mm1-4ArtAmazon

still relevant, at least to me! thanks for the effort and the sharing. thumbs up.

hi, great video thanks. I have a crop camera and at the moment have 50mm 1.8 stm but want wider lens for indoors. would you recommend 35mm IS usm or 28mm Is usm? I will also be doing videos here and there. thank you
They are both good but I think the 35 gives you a larger aperture? Just a little at f2. But if you need wider then get the 28.

Ef lens or efs lens ?
what is the BEST lens u can get for videography ?
the best lenses for videography are:
1- sigma 18-35mm f1.8 DG HSM Art
2- Canon 17-55mm f2.8 is usm
3- Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 SP Di VC
4- Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 SP Di VC
but if you have a lot of money, you can change the list above by this one:
1- Canon 16-35mm f2.8 L iii ( new version)
2- Canon 24-70mm f2.8 Lii USM
3- Canon 70-200mm f2.8 iS Lii USM
if you have these lenses, you are the king. try to see some reviews, comparison and video tests and you will see by yourself.
remark: don't forget to buy the B+W UV ,CPL and ND filters for awesome video results.
Good luck..
Great lens, it's the fastest stabilized prime for full frame, the sony 35mm 1.8 is the fastest aps-c stabilized prime
+Itaku that's cool, I haven't seen the Sonly since this is a Canon cam but I guess you could use an adapter if it's the right Sony mount.
image stabilization will work on viltrox adapter to m50?
Hmm I have my doubts, a lot of adapters to communicate the electronics
@@RayOrtega i see thanks
Ray, would you recommend this over the 1.4L 35mm for video? Thanks!
+555 Gear depends on what you're shooting I guess. If you need to be handheld then you definitely want an IS lens. Otherwise 1.4 gives you an even larger aperture which is always nice to have. Both are great looking lenses, sharp images.
Thanks again Ray! Your channel has been immensely helpful!

Does it work on a 700d??
Yes, this a full frame lens so it will cover the crop sensor on the 700d as well as any full frame camera.
Great look
Maybe you could get Brian Williams to provide commentary for the video at the end of your review! You know "...guided by the beauty of our weapons"?
What was the shoulder strap called?

This lens is wonderful. I use it on a full frame and the image quality is superb. I compared it with the sigma 35 f1.4 art and decided to sell sigma. Canon is just better. Here's my review of this lens (in russian): olegasphoto.com.ua/index.php/obzor-canon-ef-35mm-f2-is-usm-vs-sigma-35-1-4-art/
I love Lens 35mm 😍

Anyone shoot with this lens on the sony a7s?? It's sharper than the rokinon 35mm cine as well plus has IS which seems like it would pair very nicely with the a7s.
+Gary Lewis the only problem is the adapters to connect it to the A7s. I was not very happy with any I tried especially for the price, they should work better.
Thanks Ray, I wish someone would take the videos with ambient sounds. I would like to "hear" the lens. I am interested in recording the life around us, not just music backgrounds
Yeah, most lenses are fairly noisy in AF mode until they came out with the STM lenses which made those almost silent.
Seems to be a nice walkaround lens for man on street and close dialogue shots.
Yeah and a crop sensor cam like 70D, 80D etc, it's a great focal length.
this lense seems to be so sharp
Yeah I really like this lens especially as a great all around lens that can handle most of things you'd want it to do.
cool thanks for the respond, i saw your video on the canon 80D , in the 4 past year i have the canon 550D + EFS 18-135 lense + sigma ef 50mm 1.4 usm
and i want to upgrade, you think that the canon 80D with this lense will be a good combination?
Great video!
+Its Sheila thanks, Sheila!
Thanks for the video explain very nice
Good job.
thx!
About 50mm equivalent on a C100.
Good video; great lens:)
What were your video settings?????
Video was shot in many parts so the settings are always different but I was using the 70D and this is how I set it up ua-cam.com/video/fYVHbBkArJA/v-deo.html
canon 35mm f2 is or tamron 35mm f1.8???
tamron is also vc (image stabilized as well) and both are exact same price
This lens should not be stabalised it is 35mm
