Actually, looks like it's been down. Muffler guard...Still looks fresh out of the showroom floor.
It's my lens hood, sometimes I don't screw it on all the way, so it creates a bit of a vignette. Plus a 35 wide open on a full frame has a bit of a vingettenice picture. One concern though is the vignetting you are getting. With no post, something has to be off. Are you stacking filters or are you using the correct lens shade? Some people like the look of the vignette, but It is often better to avoid it until post. Start with the best image you can get, and then work with it. It can save you a ton of time. There are different lenses for different sensor sizes as well. Some of the cannon digital lenses are not intended for all of there cameras.
just looked up the lens, this is from a review... Some vignetting will be apparent to Full Frame and 1.3x FOVCF DSLR users until stopped down f/2 or so. seems like optical vignetting, there should be an on camera correction for this as well. It can also be corrected in post in raw processing, but having to do that to all images can be a pain.
Yup, my dumbass roommate dropped it within the first hour I brought it homeActually, looks like it's been down. Muffler guard...
I figured either stacked filters or lens shade issue. That lens and camera should only have a vignette that is that bad pretty much wide open. That does not appear to be the case there though. It is pretty much the down side of full frame DSLRs though... The nicer wide angle lenses that open wide tend to have issues.It's my lens hood, sometimes I don't screw it on all the way, so it creates a bit of a vignette.

I just saw the announcement for the 1D-X, I'd rather buy another bike though, haha. Personally I'm more concerned about lenses than bodies. Lenses will last you forever if you take care of them, bodies will always break down at some point.I figured either stacked filters or lens shade issue.

Canon is going to be converting many of its current APS-C cameras to full frame, maybe then they will invest more into lens development instead of still selling the film lenses even though they no longer sell film cameras.
On a side note, they just launched a new camera as well... costs more than my 250 for the body... 1D-X $6800.
What do you normally photograph? I have done everything from product, to glamour, to concert, to portraight, to architectural, to landscape... I love photography, but the biggest mistake I ever made was making it into my job. Kind of took most of the fun out of it. Only good thing was the concert side... free passes to see many cool bands play and the chance to shoot at clubs were cameras were not allowed. Shot mostly punk bands. Product was cake, but boring, portraiture was a nightmare when you had quasimoto want you to make them look like cinderella. Architectural generally dealt with people who took forever to pay you, and landscape just did not do it for me.
LOLI personally don't care about the vignette. They were just quick shots to post on here.
