The Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L USM is a large-diameter wide-angle lens with
f/1.4 capability that optimises brightness. It is the successor to the
EF 24mm f/1.4 USM and further complements the Canon L-series of
wide-angle lenses. The optical system includes a polished aspherical
lens along with a floating element, providing high image quality with
outstanding correction for both wide f/1.4 aperture and aberration
effects and outstanding definition over the entire image area. In
addition, the lens's ring USM and silent AF operation make it an
outstanding L-series lens for both professional and advanced amateur
users.
