Hello everyone.
New to the forum and would like anyone's opinion on the 2 lenses mentioned in the title.
Basically I have a credit note from trading 2 lenses last week and I'm looking into getting an 85mm of some kind to go with my 135 f2.
Does anyone have experience with both copies that they can share to help with my decision?
Now I realise the Canon variant is just over 1000 pounds more expensive,which is usually the main argument in choosing the Sigma if the 1.2 aperture of the Canon isn't 100% required.
What I would like opinions on though is which one is the best to get overall when budget/cost (like my circumstances) aren't a concern?
I've been reading up on both lenses and each have their own pro's and cons to consider. But is the Canon actually 150% better than the Sigma to warrant it's price?
The eventual lens I buy will likely be used as a walk around/portrait and candid rather than for any sports photography etc.,so the apparent slow focus of the 85L won't be a problem if it's the final choice.
Any help much appreciated.
James.
