I know there's the 135L and the SF, but are there any other 135mm primes? Like some obscure one from Olympus or something... I know Sigma has a 105 and a 150, but those are either too short or too long. If not, is the 135 SF ok on full frame? Thanks.

Well, the EF 135/2 is very hard to beat overall. The Ef 135/2.8 SF is almost as good for a lot less money. But, if you can handle MF, look at my gear list. I'm up to 4 different 135/1.8s as well as other 135s.

135s are a dime a dozen if you can manually focus.

The EF 135mm f/2.8 SF is a good lens. It doesn't focus very close however. I find I'm often hitting the close focus limit. Adding a 500D filter or an extension tube fixes the problem but is a bit of a hassle. The 52mm filter threads mean cheap filters which is nice too.
