for sale

i have decided to sell this lens.
it is 11 months old.
i have used it three times….today being one of the three.

it's a Canon 85mm f/1.8 lens.

i took these two picture this morning with the 85mm lens.
crystal clear.

beautiful lens.
low apeture so you get a crisp focus with lovely depth. 

i used this lens on one shoot.
this photo of this handsome green eyed boy was shot with this 85mm lens.

there is no problem with this lens.
it is a fixed lens so in order to zoom….you have to move your body closer or farther away.

for me…i realized i want the zoom.

i am most comfortable with a zoom.  
i am close-up-in-your-face kind of girl. 

and i want to keep this lens.
but i really want a BIG BIG lens.

so i am selling this one to save money for the big daddy lens i am really wanting.
make sense?

someday….when i can fill my photo bag with dreamy choices of lens….carry two cameras on shoots….have an assistant….travel across the world taking pictures….then i will have this lens again.
but for now i can only have one.
and a back up.

here is the description for b&h photo where i bought it in march 2010.

 

The Canon 85mm f/1.8 USM Autofocus Lens is a highly practical medium telephoto lens with superb delineation and portability. Images are sharp and clear at all apertures. Through computer simulations, the lens has been designed to give beautiful background blur. Since the front lens group does not rotate during focusing, special filter effects are not affected.

Note! Lens is compatible with full frame format cameras.
