Re: Canon 85mm 1.8 or 1.2L


You guys are probably right. But after spending all that cash on the 85 1.2 L 11, and putting up with slow AF, what am I going to say...


But here is the thing , even you guys admit there would be a difference.


And while for many that isnt enough. For me that little bit \"extra\" is worth every cent and the extra size/weigt cost...oo .
Like many many things I am interested in I realize how much being just a little better.
When you consider how harder and more time / concentraiton /effort it takes in this life to get 3% better (gaining muscle, being a better musican, becoming more efficient in Martial Arts\" when your at the highest level in ... anything . The amount of effort time money energy to get a little better is just how it is.

Now if your expecting the 85 1.2 L to be three times better because it cost so much more than the 1.8 version. That\'s not how it works. And for some, I can see why many say.. for the huge differnce in price, why bother.it



And considering what your getting with the 85 1.2 L 11 (one of the finsest medium telephoto\'s ever made by anyone) the price is reasonable.

If it was made by Leica it would be $6,000

I am stcking with what I said about the 85 1.2 L 11. It\'s a no brainer.












with 12mm tube.
