really like the 1st shot. great creamy background.

I see you also have the 135 f2. How do you find it? was thinking about switching my 85 f1.8 for the 135 very soon for the 5d. do you have any 135 samples?

Great pics, only thing I noticed is the little girls coat in the 1st pic looks a little over exposed towards the right side.. although I am no expert!

just brought a 350D with kit lens and I am been given a 50mm prime f1.8 hopefully my pics will come out as good ;-)

Bizarre... My subscribed thread alerts are not working on here...

Anyhow thanks for all the replies guy's. I have taken some more shots today and can tell you this lens is as sharp as any lens I have ever laid my hands on..

sleepyd: No mate its the Mk1 version.

morgan You will find a world of difference upgrading to the 135mm prime from your 85mm 1.8 mate. A different class all together..

Just gonna add a couple from tonight if you don't mind..
