I bought mine for rm3460 when it first launch from Hike in PG. Not sure the price now. Don't rush into buying too many lens at 1 go. You need to familiarized with the lens first before trying out another one.

Depend on what u wanna shoot. I used this lens a lot to take head shot of my son. I liked it very much. More than my 35 mm 1.8G.

yea 85mm focal on DX head shots nice! u using DX oso? what u feel about half body shots?

for 35mm i'm using it for streets biggrin.gif

I used to use DX (D7000). Now I upgrade to FX (D600). I still like the 85 on DX better due to the crop factor. Thinking of getting the 135 now. For 1/2 body shots, still ok but need to stand a bit far. I tried to use 35 for head shot and the result is so weird. The nose will look so big. You have to get so close that my son will grab my lens. That's why I get the 85.
