Cons: I use it on Canon EOS 5D mkII. The main cons is the lack of autofocus and automatism on the diafragm due the adaptor, but this is my choice. Lens design does not permit the use of filters

Pros: Amazing resolution, much better than any prime from Leica or Zeiss, and of course Canon or Nikon.

Summary: dreaming of Canon may design something like this, meanwhile, the best value for your money

Cons: Exposed large front element.

Pros: Outstanding optical quality at all focal lengths, very minimal distortion, excellent build quality.

Summary: If your thing is landscape photography don't let the filter issue deter you from buying this lens. You will appreciate the freedom that the quality of images taken with this lens even right into the corners wide open produces. This to me outways being able to fit a filter on as there are easy options around this issue.

Cons: On FX : none.

Pros: Sharp over the whole picture, even wide open. Vignetting is moderate and distortion, esp. around 14mm, easily corrected (using DxO for instance). Not very sensitive to flare. Good handling, despite it being bulky.

Summary: Simply stunning. High price, but value is just as high.

Cons: cannot take filters

Pros: truly amazing quality for an ultra wide angle zoom

Summary: no other lens matches its performance and the price is actually pretty good when you consider that the Canon 14mm prime alone costs more

Cons: Price

Pros: It is a crime to stop this lens down. It is designed to shoot @2.8!

Summary: I would put the size and weight into "cons" section but I know you can not trick physics. And... I like its macho look :-)

Cons: Heavy & Bulky (for me anyway) Can't use filters

Pros: Super sharp at all focal lengths and apertures, with superb build quality. Creates stunning wide angle shots on full frame cameras with rich colours. Resists flare quite well.

Summary: The best wide angle zoom full stop. No need for primes in this range so long as weight is not a problem. And I seem to be able to get away with not using filters so far..
