That would be another reason the 100-300 would be a better choice. I
already use the 28-135 in the studio, and for most of my work. It's
just that sometimes, in some of the terrain I shoot in, the 135 isn't
enough reach. And the 85 f1.2 is more expensive than the 100-400. I'd
love to own lenses like that, but economics dictate otherwise. If I
earned my living with them, it might be different.
