It's an amazingly addictive lens. I bring mine with me everywhere as part of my two-prime walkabout setup. The only problem with it is that unless I use ND filters, I'd need ISO 25 or so to shoot it wide-open outside in the sun. Yikes...Just received an 85mm F1.2 this morning. Seems to be built like a
tank.
Here is the inevitable:

Congrats... I envision that you will not be taking off that lens for the next 2 months.

I didn't take mine off for 4 weeks when I first got it.
But I'm slowly diversifying again...DaShiv

Take a look at any forum on this site, and I guarantee you that you will find cat pictures.

Well, because mirror lenses are cheap and cats are arguably the best mirror lenses!

Congrats on a great lens. I just got the 85/1.8 myself, which I also find to be outstanding. I can only imagine what f/1.2 can do for DOF and bokeh!
