Of the two lenses I prefer the pop of the 135 F2…but in a perfect world I’d want a 105 F1.4.

I don’t know how reliable the AF is on the Sigma 85 f1.4 is….I believe the recent 105 F1.4 is meant to be more accurate and consistent, but I can’t personally vouch for it.

Much prefer the working distance of 100mm lenses vs 85mm.

I‘ll probably wait for the RF 100 f1.8 and the R5 mk2…on EF mount/dslr, I’d stick to the 135 f2

Thanks, I’ve heard of a lot of af issues in the past with sigma.

I shoot with an R now so as far as I’m aware the af problems are no longer an issue with mirrorless.

I wasn’t aware there is a rf 100 1.8 due for release? If there’s rumours of the release then I may hold off a bit.
