I had an 85 F/1.2L Mk1 but sold it because it was too long on my 20D.

I now have a 5D and I have ordered the 85 F/1.2L Mk2 which should hopefully be arriving soon.

Here is an image taken when I still had my Mk1:

razor thin DOF, needs a lot of work just to make sure you got the focus right.

Personally find the DOF too thin to work with.
