my first with the 85L II

[Rudi]

Hi everyone,

This was my first portrait shoot with the new 85L II (when I got it a few weeks ago). Despite the trouble that I got into because she was wearing no make-up ( :eek: ), she ended up liking the image in the end! :)

Ooooo...you lucky dog! That's some shallow dof! This lens is on my wish list for portraiture. It's a beauty.

I luv the isolation and shallow dof, based on your shots this will really work for you, nicely done!

[Pete]

Nice work Rudi,I just got an 85mm a few weeks ago myself and have yet to really try it out.

[Peter]

Now that a shallow DOF! Excellent portrait shot!:)

The DOF with that lens is so small it's scary. You did real good with it. Do you trust the AF with that kind of DOF or do you manual focus?

[Jonathan]

Goodness as others have said got to love the DOF. Nice isolation here

[Harv]

Man, that lens has the depth of field the thickness of a postage stamp. I really like the attitude of her head in this and her eyes appear to be looking right into mine. Well done.

Love the shot too and would really like to add that lens to my bag as well. Your picture post thread turned into a drool over your lens thread! ;)

Thanks for sharing the shot.
