Canon 35mm f1.8 ltm

Dante Stella called this an under appreciated lens, while many others hunt for the better Canon 35mm f2 ltm lenses, i thought i should try to give this lens a try...and seriously took me a long search to find one that is reasonably priced and optically clean.

According to Dante Stella, this lens is a Planar type, single coated and 11 aperutre blades.It has good sharpness without being too contrasty.

The seller bundled it with the original hood and yellow filter.

Back to the images, i agree with Dante's review, its indeed sharp yet less contrasty...it tend to render a nice smoothness when shoot at f1.8..

Will show more pictures of it, in my next entry.
