[QUOTE="eal1, post: 468820, member: 8642"] echoing many here but i have both, love both. When i purchased my first Nikon digital, hte D7000, i bought the 105 macro because of that special capability. IT is a wonderful lens. Later i purchased the 85/1.8 and i love that even more. I rented the 85/1.4 and that renders such a beautiful bokeh, but the difference between the 1.8 and 1.4 costs much too much for my needs. All in all, when i want to take portraits and family pictures, I generally use the 85/1.8 because it has lovely bokeh, is very sharp and very light for carrying around all day. Having said that, i wouldn't part with my 105 either. Maybe you should rent both, try them out to find which you prefer. [/QUOTE]
