It produces great colors, it focuses fast and quiet and it stores easily into most bags

Both lens render beautiful skin colors and 3D like pictures

Relatively light and compact, excellent colors, creamy bokeh

SLR Cameras and compared to the 85mm f/1.8D model, which has really bad color fringing

This is a lens that you can shoot wide open ALWAYS, and hardly ever have to worry about low shutter speeds, bad colors, low contrast, unsharp images etc.(well, if you are not super picky at a professional level that is)

This lens's sharpness wide open and stopped down, color reproduction and lack of cromatic aberrations is amazing

The 1.8 produced somewhat lifeless colors

The colors and the images I was able to create were amazing

Faces (and eyes) are tack sharp, the colors luxuriously warm, and bokeh background pleasingly soft.

Sharp, looks superb on D4 and D800E.Creamy Bokeh, amazing colors and contrast

It's magical, not just sharp but the colors are beautiful and the bokeh is milk shake creampy

The image quality is fabulous - sharp, contrasty, good color - perhaps so

Bokeh was smoother and more pleasant, and the color was nicer

Focus is smooth and easy, colors bold and rich and it's sharp into all four corners

sharp, quick...excellent color reproduction.i go to the extent to say it comes close to my

It is MUCH faster in focus speed performance than the Canon 85mm 1.2 L II though, which can easily be one of the slowest focusing lens I have encountered other than Nikon's 80-400mm VR
