Arrived today, excellent lens, sharp quick, lovely prime lens., stopped down around F2.8- F5.6 sweet spots.
So I ended up selling off my EF 85/1.2L II just this pass week and have considered replacing it with this for my 5D Mark IV specifically because it is image stabilized.
Do you think its sharp enough wide open though?
And also important. How is the AF speed of this lens?
Sorry had to read that twice, thought you were talking about the 5D4, as for the the 85MM F1.4 its great in the time i have used it, it is sharp at F1.4, but takes a bit of getting use to, i would say the sweet spot is from F2.2- F5.6 in the small time use, as i have only just got it. I need more practice with it, but i must say very impressed and having the IS is great for an old one like me.
