I can actually use my lens as they were designed, 24mm is wide again. IQ is excellent, Build quality is very good.
While I know there are 3rd party split ring focusing screens available it would be nice if Canon would make one available for the 5D. I'm a purist at heart and prefer MF & Manual Exposure over auto anything.

Value, IQ

Build Quality, ease of MF

Build quality is laughable - that said this is probably the best value based on price to IQ.
If you plan to MF this is not the lens to use.

Bought new & it front focused - a quick trip to sigma (2 day turn around) corrected AF problem. This lens is extremely sharp & contrasty, handles the Sigma 1.4 TC extremely well. Build quality is excellent.
