I do not believe a lens makes a difference in the feel of a photo. But they certainly do in the feel to the photographer of the taking, and that can make a difference. I question if going from 1.8 to 1.2 will make any real difference. I know for a fact, that 1.2 is way too shallow for any type of portrait. But hey, if you've got money to burn, burn it and enjoy. May I suggest the 50/1.4 as an alternative, for full body shots. And after you go digital it'll become your 85/1.4 :-) * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
