[QUOTE="Panza, post: 381366, member: 28379"] Hi, I have the 80-200mm f/2.8 d and it has suited me fairly well over the years, but the one thing that it is not is .. well, convenient. I was considering the 85mm f1.8/d as a lightweight alternative for my full frame camera set up or completely replacing it with the 85 f1.4/D which is the same price. I shoot auto/bike races weddings, events, and portraits. I usually have it on a tripod or monopod mount because it feels awkward by my side on a camera holster. Also I broke my back in 2005 in an unlucky fall so I try to stay light load around my neck. [/QUOTE]
