I just got back from In[FOCUS] in New Orleans which was a very inspirational event. While I was there I filmed a piece with a rep from Canon. We went through a series of primes lenses (14mm rectilinear, 15mm fisheye, 35mm 1.4, 50mm 1.2, 50mm 1.4, 85mm 1.2, 85mm 1.8, 135mm 2.0, 135mm 2.0 with 1.4 tele converter which you lose 1 stop and it became a 2.8) that they had. As we switched each lens the only thing that changed was the iso. Each lens was left wide open and we were around 3ft from the subject. All was shot on a 5D. It was also shot in 24P.

  • thank you! great review, help me a lot..

  • OPTIMUS PRIME! 

  • I feel like changing to Canon from Nikon, just based on this review, stunning quality. The Canon 85mm 1.8 has much better Bokeh than the Nikkor 85mm 1.8d. Count me jealous. Nikon needs to come up with the 85mm 1.8g fast. Sadly I cannot afford to buy the 85mm 1.4. :)
