Beautiful shot and a amazing piece of glass.
How much did you spend?
I think i am going to get a vintage 85mm / 100mm or a newer version of one of those lenses.

Thanks ^^

It was a little over $400, lens plus uv/haze b+w filter.

Why vintage?

Lenses are cheaper and I pretty much focus on still objects. I like the look too, with all the knobs and being able to control more than just the length and focus on the lens.

Makes sense. You should look into the rokinon 85mm 1.4, I almost got it but my subjects move around a little too much :lol: Its manual focus only, excellent price though and Ive heard its an awesome lens.

Thats different :P. Id do it for family, Id probably still suggest that they hire a photographer though.
