Re: Feedback: EF 85 mm f/1.8 USM sharpness for handheld shots

Thanks for your reply.

I am interested in this lens because of its large aperture and to complete my set composed of 50 mm and 28 mm f/1.8. I am already used to the techniques associated with such wide apertures, so here it will mainly to learn how to deal with it at a longer reach, without IS.

Regarding flash, yes, I think it can obviously bring something extra to the image, apart from solving the long shutter speeds. But the problem is that I am a lazy guy... The day I really feel limited and/or ready to experience it, then I will make the big jump.

Cheers!
