Re: Canon EF135mm f/2L USM
great shot!
if you have shot raw and lightroom i would suggest pulling the highlight down a tiny bit to take a little emphasis off the hair highlight it draws your eye away from her face. I would possibly tweek the contrast up a tiny bit too

Just picked up this lens off of Craigslist for 750. It is pretty cool.

I honestly think the shutter speed was a little too low....

I like your photo
I am not sure....but the bokeh seems a little nervous. What do you think yourself?

One of those pictures where it is hard to focus on your technical skills

Re: Canon EF135mm f/2L USM
One of the best things about this lens is its ability to produce stunning photos in lousy light. I shot this during a portrait setting in truly terrible light and still ended up with an entire shoot that the clients were very pleased with. (Canon 5D MKII)

Artistic Gallerina by Kernuak (avalonlightphotoart.co.uk), on Flickr
The reason I bought the lens, was to shoot pine martens in low light, where I knew I would be close, but I have also found other uses for it. It can also be used to produce artistic near macro images with very narrow depth of field, when used with extension tubes. Not to everyone's taste, but it can be effective.Sporgon said:

It does work very nicely as a pseudo macro on extension tubes. That great clarity and bokeh still shine in that setting.

Re: Canon EF135mm f/2L USM
I went through my annual MFA process with my lenses today but, this year, I bought Reikan Focal Pro so I shot some tests afterwards to see the results. I was reminded why I like this lens so darn much. This is a 100% crop from the right middle third @ 1/200, f/2, ISO 200, handheld on my 5D2 (the JPG was generated by LR4 with no adjustments).
Not a good photo but so sharp on the focal plane that it'll cut you!
BTW, Focal is great! I was able to MFA 9 lenses in about 45 minutes once I had the test target, lights, and tripod set-up. Only two of those lenses were set at zero despite previous MFA tests, the 100L macro and 70-300L. Focal left them both at 0 but adjusted all my other lenses by 2-3 points in either direction. It seems to have done the job properly and was worth the money just for the time savings!
