• 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.

Anything Wrong with an 85 1.2 on a Crop Body?

I think you all did it; hence the magic of obsessing and constantly asking questions that barely make sense.
My 200 2.8 really comes in handy at times, but mostly collects dust so I think I can spend not too much (if anything through selling the dust collectors, 70D and EF-S lens) and end up with a 6D, 35 2.0 IS, 85 1.8 and 135 2.0.
I think I'm gonna do that.

:D

If it helps you with any concerns about giving up the rarely used 200, the 135 takes the 1.4x quite well for a 189 f/2.8

Well, I'm probably not as picky/elitist as the super tech types that spend a lot of time on these types of forums, yet I like/appreciate a good kit that is the right fit for one's shooting. I shoot a very similar kit (with additional options/lenses) as I have a 6D, 35 f/1.4 Sigma Art, 85 f/1.8, and 135 f/2 and all 3 lenses are an excellent fit. The 35mm is by far my most used lens while the 85 and 135 are both in my top 5 for sure (maybe even #2 and #3).
