Review on Canon EF 85mm f1.2L II USM ๐Ÿ“ท Lens: Perfect for Canon DSLR Cameras - Fixed-Focus Excellence by Asahi Akio แ Œ

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

Blurring even at 1.4 is noticeably stronger than on the new 85 1.4, and even more so at 1.2. Compared to 50 1.2 koma in the corners is much better, the bokeh is softer and smoother, well, sharper in the corners, although 50 1.2 is also a super lens. Aberrations are stronger than on 135 2.0, but they appear very rarely and are easily corrected. In general, it turned out to be sharper than all L-fixes from 24 to 135 on the same apertures.

Pros
  • Blurring is very strong and smooth, beautiful drawing. Colors, contrast. Sharpness from edge to edge already at 1.2 is excellent for close-ups, with 1.4 you can generally shoot anything. Compact body, even more compact than the new 85 1.4.
Cons
  • Dust flies inside over time, but nothing will get on the matrix, because. covered with a lens at the back. A little heavy, although given that it is 1.2, no one has it lighter and with such quality. Focus in the dark is not fast, but it is always very accurate.
