I used to fear manual lenses as I thought it as hard to focus, but with the confirming sound and little practice its so easy to use. this lens is a joy to use, the focus ring is so smooth you feel the build quality when you turn it. this thing is build from metal all over it no plastic anywhere. highly recommended.

I had 70-200 f4 IS, it was sharp but having f4 isn't so exciting like f2.8 you get nice bokeh. Also it take 1.4 tc very well, you really can't see any difference with and without. And heard It take the 2x in a good matter but didn't try it because I don't own it.

Pros:

WOW what a camera, the still quality so amazing, the video incredible, light weight, the best camera by far.
|
|
Cons:
|
not really a negative but rather suggestion, i think build quality should be improved.
faster fps 3.9 isnt enough, it should be at least 5.

this camera has alot of features, but the most amazing is video. especially if you have nice L lenses, with high aperture you can shoot video with bokeh something you dream to get without very expensive video gear. man when you see a portrait shot in video and the background is in bokeh, this by it self is worth it for me.
the image quality is beyond excellent, i saw images from Nikon by the best cameras, this is much better. yes Nikon beat Canon in build quality and features compared to price. but when it come to image quality nothing can beat the new 5D.
many of my L lenses didnt do good with canon 30D, but with this camera all of them are incredibly different. especially wide lenses like the 24-105 at 24mm used to suck with the 30D now is much better, i really dont know why.
i highly recommend this camera, if you love photography dont think just go get one.
