Those using Sony bodies, are you using the lens stabilization or
the Sony IBIS?

Nothing posted in this thread for nearly 4 months now........Come on all you owners get posting lets see your images and keep this thread alive.

I wish I could post here but this is such an expensive lens in my country that it costs a quarterly manager salary. I think there is only a couple of them here and those are not for sale.

Hello Cybercat,

I have a Canon EF 135L f/2, it's a fraction of the price of the 200L and almost as good, I would go as far to say it's the best value lens you can buy.
Have a nice Christmas...Regards Paul

I would agree, even my Canon FD 135/2.0 gives great results but no
autofocus......

Having owned the 135 and 200 I can assure you the 135 does not render near the same.
