The 135 would be superb on a digital camera with the 'crop factor', and even at it's normal high price represents good value for money when you consider what the Carl Zeiss T* 200/2 costs. I now have a Carl Zeiss T* 85/1.4, which is also a superb lens. On my Olympus cameras it has the same fov as a 170/1.4 - imagine what it would cost to buy one of those... In response to another part of this thread, it was Fred Wasti who put up an 85mm lens comparison page. Try googling his name to see if the page is still online. -- Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of P. J.
