sorry, but your as mistaken as WR is. And just as bad for not reading my posts in entirety and not knowing how USM works or behaves with out of focus parts of the image. We are not talking about "rendering" here, which includes many parameters of the lens formed image, we are talking about the bokeh of the formed lens image. jco

The M85/2 has excellent rendering properties. I only sold mine because I wanted the shorter focal length and full functionality of the shorter FA77. The bokeh of any lens is very sensitive to what has been done to render the image, not to the capture medium. Clumsy image processing will ruin the rendering qualities of any lens.
