Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM Lens Review
The Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM Lens features a short wide angle focal length range with decent build quality at a relatively low cost . The 20-35 utilizes a metal mount and has decent feel to it. It is a reasonably well built lens.

Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM Lens Review
Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM, released back in mind 1993, replaced Canon's EF 20-35mm f/2.8L USM as a consumer-grade variant (the original 20-35mm f/2.8L USM was in turn discontinued in favor of EF 17-35mm f/2.8L USM).

Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM review by sjp010
This is a very useful lens wide angle lens for a full frame camera if you're on a budget or need to pack light. If you're looking for ultimate image quality, click elsewhere. If you want a cheap 20mm lens that is reasonably well built and gives good image quality at f/5.6 or f/8, this may be what...
Pros:
- Small
- light
- inexpensive
- fast silent ring USM
- good build quality
Cons:
- contrast a little weak wide open
- hood is huge and probably useless

Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM - Review / Test Report
The optical construction is made of 12 elements in 11 groups without any special elements. Its aperture mechanism features just 5 aperture blades so a pleasing bokeh was probably not on the design priority list nor is it really needed for the majority of applications of such a lens.

The Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM was Canon´s first attempt to provide an ultra-wide lens to the masses. It was introduced back in 1993 and possibly it has been discontinued recently (no clear information here yet).

I just bought this little lens off ebay for a great price. I have noticed so poor reviews here but at the price I thought I would give it a try.

- Lightweight
- quick and accurate USM focusing
- price

Canon EF 20-35mm f/3.5-4.5 USM
This lens has a nice feel and build, and a fast and accurate AF. But the IQ never could convince me. As a wideangle I used it for landscapes and cityscapes, and found the contrast and colors to be lacking. Also straight lines in the middle of the frame got distorted.
Pros:
- build
- AF
Cons:
- contrast
- distortions
- range

Great lens for the price. Gives a very sharp image.
Overall, this is a very good lens that every filmmaker should have in his bag. Yes, I use my DSLR primarily for filmmaking and have found the 20mm focal length to come in handy a lot of times. Very sharp image given its price point. Definitely a good lens to have in the bag!
