When are you getting one?

Not taken with the 85/1.4 but of the 85/1.4!

I think I'll go for the 1.8D - third of the price!

D700 + AF85mm f/1.4D, both pics are jpg straight from camera.


f/1.4 1/2500s ISO200




f/1.4 1/2500s ISO200

a wonderful lens. The next one I want to buy, and they are quite cheap in the NL as well ... hope I can afford it this year )

belmont, yes it is indeed a wonderful lens. Colour, bokeh from this lens are very nice.

and the focal length works really well with a full frame camera too!
