Hi,
I am currently developing a project to make full body portraits of workers on the street. I would like to make portraits with huge bokeh in order to isolate the worker from the street, albeit showing a litte context. Which lens would you choose, the 50mm f/1.2L or the 85mm f/1.4L IS? I am worried about the working distance necessary for the 85mm, however, I am afraid to buy an old lens as the 50mm and then see its next version released as soon as I have bought the older version. Unfortunately, renting theses lenses is not an option in my city.
Yours sincerely,
Antonio L
