Wondering what your thoughts on a third prime lens to go with my new Canon 6D. Right now I have the Sigma 35 f1.4 and Canon 85mm f1.8. I was looking at purchasing the Canon 135mm f 2.0L lens.

Its a great combo. Have been shooting 35L, 85L & 135L for years and they match up almost perfectly.

I know that most people use it as a portrait lens, but I though it may also be good for indoor/outdoor events that my kids will be participating in.

Its an excellent event lens as it allows you to freeze action when a zoom will not do.

A few samples (as always check the original since pictures look really bad here at dpreview). Good luck with your choice!:

Wow, Great series of photos to show how versatile this lens is. Looks like it is next on my list.

Thanks
