I've borrowed a couple of lenses and taken these almost identical pics, in natural light, 100% crop, no PP.
I must admit, on first glance they look pretty close. Who can tell me which lens is worth £500 (nearly $900) more than the other?

The tablecloth is a bit sharper, the bokeh looks a bit better to me (though not by much), and there's more contrast. Jordan Steele - http://www.jsteelephotos.com

Did you use a tripod? == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==
