I'm looking to buy a dedicated portrait lens and I'm hesitating between two Canon's:
- 100mm macro f/2.8 (non L version)
- 85mm f/1.8
Both are about the same price second hand where I live (280-350€. I need something that'll give me the sharpest files possibles straight of the camera at F/8-f/11.
Buddy of mine let me spend some time with his 100mm macro and I loved it, however I'm on an crop sensor and 160mm will be too long or my home studio. I'd like the 85mm f/1.8 cause I'll have more room but also I could use the wide aperture.
If somebody used both these lenses I'd be glad to hear from them.
