[QUOTE="torgo, post: 2304, member: 909"] [FONT="Georgia"]Do you want it for the 85mm's field of view? If so, the 50mm comes out to a 75mm FOV on a crop-sensor camera, which is pretty close. Or are you looking at the 85mm f/1.4 for its legendary bokeh (never had one, but some people get absolutely goo-goo-gaa-gaa about it in forums) or other DOF attributes? Even if that's what you're looking for, if you're talking a 50mm f/1.8, it's barely over $100, so you could possibly get the 50 now, and the 85 later? (I like spending other people's money ;))[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
