85 F/1.4L IS is difficult to make the background swirly, while not difficult for the foreground. On the other hand, 85 F/1.2 makes both sides without any difficult.

Enjoy some samples.

Swirly backgrounds are terrible!

Is that really something you want?

I do not think it is swirly. There are some double lines, unfortunately, when pushed too hard.

Honestly, the rendering is more similar to 85mm 1.8 lens than 85ii, none of the pictures I’ve seen so far would mix well with 85L 1.2 or 135L epic shots.
