Since there is known issues with 35L on 1D bodies, I would say yes it needs new version. But I manage using 24L mk II instead, it gives me about same focal on 1.3 crop.
Leonid, my current 35L copy performs well beyond my expectations on 1DMkIIN and 1DsMkII (and 40D as well).....in fact I am so pleased with it that I will not be updating to 35L MkII whenever that comes out.
Problem 35L sharpness starts on mk III and reported by most owners including myself. MA doesn\'t help or needed huge numbers with min effect. Same time 24L mk II worked amazingly good on same mk III, to me it is clear that 35L having certain design limitations on newer bodies since many people report same even on mk IV. Yes, it works great on 5D/5D2, not sure why but that is another story
