gosh... but the price is...

well, since this title is what would be my next purchase, it would probably be this lens...
but "when"... a few more yrs ba... haha

reason would be... i need a range like this to do portraiture and its a good range zoom to take concerts/shows too... hehe

On my wish list is the Canon 135mm F2L.

Kinda expensive for a prime lens but it's excellent for long-range street candids, low-light stage photography and even indoor sports. And the bokeh is simply to die for.

I decided to sell my unit and become a homeless bum,
but will still be admired by all Canon users at CS (though they know I am crap at photography)

I will buy the EF 1200mm f/5.6L USM

See you on the street (from a long way off ).

Cheers

135 F2 L
Coz the bokeh is very nice (saw some pictures taken with this lens in the forums here, simply ), good for me as i like to take pictures of children, can also take from far (with 20D) without them knowing...
How much is it now ah i think can never afford it in my life...

Anyone here used the other similar lens:
100 F2
135 F2.8 w soft focus (what is this?)

How are the bokehs for the 2 lens? how is this 135 compared to the L, and any other prime lens with very good bokehs?

thanks
