I don't suppose I'm hyper critical, more a I've had the 35/2 Canon, and the 35/1.8. Both were decent lenses, and the 35/2 in particular was very good over most of the field with respect to resolution. However, both lenses and a couple of other Canon 35's I've tried had some decentering problems. Out of 6 samples, all showed this defect quite visibly. Most of the other Canon focal lengths I've tried were not as severely affected, while very few Leica lenses I've had the chance to use have shown this. * Henning J.
