I haven't had time last weekend to really get to play with this lens but here's just a quick snap shot.

Is it worth the upgrade from the VI to VII 85L, optically is there much difference?

I did a lot of research on this topic. Most people that upgraded then thought it was not worth it. I think the only thing you'll benefit is from a faster focus but even then it will not be reliable for sports even though I have seen amazing shots with it. I remember reading optics was minimal change.

Recently bought this lens, was in love with it after seeing spectacular pics in this thread. Was saving for it since a long time, finally bought it during recent price drop.
Today was a sunny day after a long time here, some clicks of my daughter...

^ congratulations.. 2/3 of the pics above are out of focus.. we've all been there, this lens is a **** to focus with at the start (especially at f/1.2).
