to buy a 135L. Good move? I heard the 70-200 L II > 135L.

both are f4 right ? i would go for 70-200 little bit more flexibility...

I'd call it a good move. Personally I'd take an 85 and 135 prime over a 50, especially in your line of work.

Neither are F4. the 70-200 is 2.8 and the 135 is 2.0.



I honestly NEVER use the 50mm. The 35L never comes out of a 5d II. I don't have a 135 though.

From what I hear, they are the shit for portrait work. If I had the money I would get one. But I still am saving for some other upgrades.

Edit: Does John have one? Someone has one, I know it. Maybe Futu?

But the 70-200 II's bokeh and IQ is >
I'm wondering whether an extra stop is worth it.

The 70-200/2.8 II?

I find myself using the 135L more then my 70-200/2.8 II. Especially when you do weddings, that extra one stop is crucial.

I like to have a 35L though.

Ding. Listen to him. Eek is God.

<3, it creeps me out when people worship me though

Edit: what don't you like about the 50L? It's a magical lens, i've seen some very very very very very very very impressive wedding photos from it.
