L lenses?

[Mike Teezie]

You will love the 135 F2.0L, excellent on the 5D, gives you a little distance on the outdoor portraits, get them both.

I definitely want to get it. But since I have the 70-200 f/2.8L IS, I'm just curious if I could spend the money better elsewhere.

Damn, would it ever be sweet shooting that focal length at f/2 though! Can you say bokeh?

Speaking of L lenses, I just got a good deal on a used EF 28-80 mm f2.8 - 4 L USM. It's being sent out today, I should have it in a couple-three days. This is going to be a huge jump up in quality for me, I can't wait to try it.

I wasn't really looking for a lens right now, but was browsing a used marketplace for fun. Dangerous.

Is it maybe a 28-70 2.8L? I am not aware of a 28-80 version, but regardless I am sure you will enjoy it.

There are people with both.

I think it would be best suited on your outdoor portraits where you have room to move around. Your outdoor work is great (as is your indoors), you could justify it, but first you should get the 50 1.2 and let me know how you like it. : )

It's 28-80, it's what the 28-70 replaced.
