Canon 85mm f/1.8 users - what are your thoughts of this lens?

<< < (2/2)

Degudodger:
I really feel the need to have at least one Prime lens that i will actually use. I looked at the 135 f/2 L series but at £899 it's a little out of my price range especially as i just bought the 17-40mm which by the way i love.

I love my 50mm 1.8 but would love a 35mm 1.8 for landscape  :smiley:

Degudodger:
So far i have managed to kill three 50mm f1.8 lenses the most recent of which was a rare Mk1 (built 1988) metal mount which i managed to destroy by getting sand in it. Canon really need to weather seal all their lenses.

A friend has recently bought the 14mm f/2.8 L series which i feel compiled to have a play with.
