My 85MM f/1.2 EF L Mk II Is Here!

85MM f/1.2 EF L Mk II has arrived safely and and is mounted on my 5D

First impressions:

a. It is big & heavy...lots of glass here!
b. Focus is slow compared to my other lenses...got to move all that heavy glass back and forth
c. IQ is tack sharp!
d. Big learning curve overall, especially DoF and focus techniques.
e. Bokah is awesome!
f. Bottom line...I love it! Lots of portrait work in the future for this lens

Here is a kinda of "duck" shot...made this on Tuesday evening at 7PM...

Congrats on your awesome new lens! That is an odd looking duck in your photo? LOL!

Good luck on your new lens
I'm saving up to one myself ...and in the meantime, I'll keep on drooling over the beautiful pictures all over the net...

wow congrats

heavy and fat lens...but at least now your wallet is lighter and thinner

If that was actually a duck you were shooting, I suggest you return the lens

Such a subject for an expensive lens.

Not bad for getting it close to 50% off retail price You'll put it to great use, Jim. I cant wait to see more!

grats!

And you post a shot at f/2?
Blasphemy!
Congrats.

Better than a focus chart, IMO.
