I got this lens for portraits, weddings and for shooting flat art work. ~~ For now I'm favoring my Canon 55mm f/1.4, over the 85mm f/1.2L. for portraits and weddings. ~~ This may very well change when it comes to shooting more weddings inside under particularly dark conditions and evening receptions where lights are set way low and candles are lit for the ambiance. ~~~~~~~~~~ Though for flat art work, I'm now using the 85mm f/1.2L; I 'feel' I'm getting greater clarity and sharpness from this l... –Horace G.

I'll take slow and sharp over fast and blurry any day of the week. –How's this for a Pen Namefrom Amazon.com
