  Whereabouts are you based?

  Have you had any focus issues with this? This lens seems a bit love hate in reviews!

  Dublin, near kilmanham jail or sandyford during working hours mon-thu
  never an issue with focus, very sharp even wide open
  but be aware that DOF when at f/1.4 on a 30mm is very thin, any misfocus or subject movement will make your picture off focus (that is on focus on a not desired place)
  continuous autofocus is very fast and accurate, focusing with an f/1.4 is always easy, focusing on the right spot depends on you :wink:

  these are samples of it
