Review: After researching for 85 prime , I stumbled on this . I have not own a Zeiss lens before, but I have hear a lot of amazing reviews about it so I gave it a try. The canon 85 mm 1.4 L is another option, however, for the price, this is the bang for the buck item. No chromatic fringing, no distortion and tack sharp at 1.4 even if you focus on the extreme side of the AF point. I have tried a manual lens before , but this lens has an amazing focus . It is so precise to nail the perfect focus. I own a 24-70 2.8 ii and 70-200 2.8 ii IS , but this lens blew the previous away and this raised up my bar on the sharpness of the lens. !! I would still keep my canon lens , but this lens is my ace among them all. The quality is so superb on a canon 5dsr body. I would recommend to keep an auto focus lens in your bag. I have done months of research for a 85mm prime 1.4 in the market. Sigma 85mm Art 1.4 is the runner up , however, has issues with auto focus, compatibility issue with Canon 5d iv and reliability. For the price of 1200, I would rather add a few hundreds more for a zeiss milvus since it is built like a tank. In fact, more robust and solid than the famous Canon 70-200ii 2.8 L built. The milvus even has a 3 yr warranty. The 3rd place is the new Canon 85mm L 1.4 is then followed by the Tamron 85mm.
Review: Super clean and contrast results for portraits

*by R***Y on March 23, 2017*

First impression... Just received it today! I've been deliberating about this for quite some time, watching review after review. I was leaning towards the Canon 85mm f/1.2 L USM..... But with its slow focus and severe chromatic aberration, after renting it found out that the keeper rate wasn't that great about 60%... I was somewhat apprehension about a manual focus lens, With that being said...Don't be!! .. with senior pictures coming up I needed a fast 85, it's replacing my 85 f/1.8.. which for most people it's a decent lens, but I like for my work to outshine the competition.. In my opinion after shooting this all day long the optical quality is Superior!!! To anything else I've used, only canon that's even close is the 135mm f/2 L usm, but that's a different animal... chromatic aberration is virtually non existing , some venetting but evenly distributed across the frame wide open . My 5D mklll controls the aperture, notification when focus is achieved, No guess work with my ageing eyes! I own 6 other Prime pieces of glass... But I have a feeling that this one will soon be one of my favorite! Lol, this puppy is built like a tank, all metal and weather sealed...like the the lens of yesteryear but superb optics..So if manual focus scares you Don't be... I'm so happy with my decision on this Baby, lol..I'll update in the future and I'm not bad for writing reviews! ...Would I recommend it? In a New York minute! Hell Yes, would I buy it again, absolutely!! Hope this helps you decide Ken.....Re Image Photography
