• UPDATE



    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

hi all I am looking at the 1.8 as a portrait lens as the 1.2 is not in the same range price wise

in my film days I used a 85 1.8 fd lens loved it. But on a crop body its no the same aspect but I will be getting the 5dmk3 in a few months. is the hood necessary for the lens. how is the flare control on the lens?
