I have owned the M 85/2. It's not sharp below 5.6 - 8. I wouldn't bother getting this one, but rather go for an SMC-A 85mm/1.4 or SMC-FA 85mm/1.4 or a SMC-K 85mm/1.8. I own the latter, whic h is excellent. I don't know the others, but I suspect that the SMC-M 50mm/1.4 is good Jens Bladt

I'm all about the available light so I'm looking at large aperture primes and would like to ask y'all's opinions about them. Specifically I'm looking at the M28mm f/2, M50mm f/1.4, and either the A85mm f/1.4 or the 85mm f/2. Pros, cons? And in regards to the 85/1.4, how often do those come available for sale?
