85 1.2 L II First Impressions

[Sinh Nhut Nguyen]

Congratulations on your recent purchase of the EF 85mm f/1.2 L II USM, Keith!


Now, $1,900 is just chump change compares to someone here who shelled out $6500 for the 500 f/4L IS a while back [][][:P][<)] LOL

Thanks Nate!


I hear you! A lot of the work I have been called for in the last few months has been right up the 85L's alley, so I feel pretty good about the purchase.


I was kicking around the idea of the 500 or the 600 a few months ago when I thought I had a chance at getting a paying gig shooting surfing. I opted for a 7D and cropping instead. I'm glad I did because the surf thing isn't taking off.
