I just purchased this lens & would love to see some images made by those that have it. I would think technique would be important with this hunk of glass.



Some from 2007 with 5D/85L mk II

Damn you all!! ...."
Damm right! and don't forget the prayer... don't bring us into temptation...", you're guilty as hell, but you can deliver the lens for me to test out for a year, your sin will be forgiven...
I just wipe my keyboard for drooling over the pix's IQ. When I grow up, I will get one myself!

I know what you mean Shane. That lens is simply amazing with the colors, but it's a labor of love with it's size. I guess the MODEL had something to do with it, too... She's about 5'10" and HOT!!

Lol-Don't worry there Sam, it is still the majority opinion of most non-85l owners that the non-L's are just as good (or better) than this one, obviously due in part to the mediocre quality of all images posted (I.e. "That picture would have turned out just as good using my ___mm screwed in backwards). Under that argument, anyone who owns a lens (any lens) Is just as guilty as u suggest!

5D @1.2 I'm still torn between this and the CZ85. Canon's big advantage is Autofocus =)

Here's another one, just getting to grips with this lens, but am loving every minute of it.

f1.2 with 12mm extension tube, manual focus

over the 1.8, it's certainly freakishly heavy =) 1.8 is very light.. plus man i feel awful for banging it up against walls n stuff when walking around. I know they're built tough. but its still painful

Focus looks a little odd here.... either there is an issue or I am not used to 1.2.

I never use the Canon software.... just Photoshop. But I remember once when I used it I saw the focus point displayed & I can't remember what the app was.

don't get why one eye & the opposite eyebrow would be in focus from this focus point. I am sure someone can enlighten me with a logical explanation.

the 85/1.2L II on Mark III and Mark II series acts a little different as what i saw.

it's easier to get dead one sharp imageswith the old 1D bodies...but when the images are well foscussed with teh Mark III, they are really gooooooooood !

All of those points must fall in the same focal plane.
