My comment was purely based on IQ, bokeh and sharpness.

A 100 times I tried the Canon 135L with Zeiss 135 and I went with the Zeiss. A 100 times I tried the Canon 85mm f1.2L II with Zeiss 85mm f1.4 and went with the Canon.

Both lenses from Canon are great. The 135mm L is an awesome focal length. But the Zeiss beats it all aspects. Its an outstanding lens.

I wasn't commenting on the Zeiss, as I've not used it, I was referring to

"The 85L II is better than the 135L."

I much prefer the 135 to the 85.  The Zeiss loses out immediately for me due to lack of autofocus in use with a system built for autofocus.
