I make my pano's with a 85mm 1.4g. The 85mm 1.8g/d is the "sharper and cheaper" why to do this. But these cheap 85mm's lack the high end optics to transmit the INSANE microcontrast of the 85mm 1.4g.

The Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 is cheap, sharp, and has good microcontrast. Manual focus is not a handicap with panos. You don't want focus changing between shots.
