The 85mm is a lovely lens though and that f1.4 aperture gives them great out of focus backgrounds. But it is expensive and I don't seem to get that much use out of mine.

I don't use mine enough. I took it out the other day for candids of my wife with the NX1 and I was again amazed at the image quality. Yes, it can be expensive, it's big-especially on the NX500-, and can be slow to focus but the images it produces are amazing.
