Canon 20mm f/2.8 advice

[macvisual]

Seen a few Canon EF 20mm f/2.8 USM for sale, seems a nice wide angle without being too wide (landscape photography) for well under £200.

Anyone use this lens on a full-frame 5D Mk1?


Any advice/knowledge/experience appreciated, thanks!

There is a reason why they appear on the used market

This will tell you to look elsewhere basically. It is sad, as Nikon equivalent is actually a very good lens.

Maybe the Canon 24mm f/2.8 prime is a much better buy..?

Maybe the Canon 24mm f/1.4L II prime is a much better buy..?

Corrected that for you

That should have read 24mm f/2.8, not f/1.4L.
