It may sound nuts but in my lens quiver I have both an EF 85 1.8USM and EF 135 2L (among several others), for portrait use. The EF 135 2L is a fantastic head lens and the EF 85 1.8USM gives me the head and shoulder and partial body images I need!
Hi Chip, I don't think you're nuts to have both lenses. Well, IF you're nuts because of that, I'm also. That may well be, though ;-) I have the 85/1.8 and 200/2.8, but I'm still searching for a good used 135/2. Now, THAT must mean I'm nuts squared, I guess. ;-) The 200 is also quite useable for portraits, IMHO. For some faces the longer focal length can really be of great help :-) Indoors I prefer the 85mm for it's shorter working distance, though.
