My favorite full frame lens is the 135L f2.

What a lens.

I only have the 40mm, 85mm, and 135mm L but its definitely my favorite. Still trying to get used to the reach - Im used to shooting around 50mm. The separation is astounding though

I'm sorry man. I rented that lens one time and I've been lusting after it ever since. It's simply amazing.

Yeah, my point exactly. It *is* amazing. But also quite expensive... :)

By the way, I'm not a man. ;)

Sorry ma'am!

But yeah, when talking L lenses, it's pretty cheap. 700-800$ used.

The only other L lens that cheap is the 70-200 f4, used of course.

The longer I look, the more colors I see. Subtle differences and great shot.

You are right of course, but there's one problem. Bodies I buy used, but lenses I want to buy new... :o

Have you ever bought a bad lens from somebody, Max? Because that is my fear with buying used lenses, that I'd be buying somebody else's lemon.

Never.

Doesn't mean it can't happen. Same goes for bodies though.

How do you get those results at 1.6 and under low light conditions?? Man, I have to go over 2.8 to get a decent overall focus in a similar photo!! Was it taken with auto focus??
