[QUOTE="STM, post: 323960, member: 12827"] It is a [I]short[/I] telephoto, but yes it is a telephoto. Even more so with DX. It is the shortest telephoto I consider using for portraiture work. The incremental increase in IQ may not be worth the extra money to you but I got rid of my 85mm f/2 AIS, which was a [I]very good[/I] lens, for the 85mm f/1.4 AIS and the increase in IQ was considerable. It is my go-to lens for half and full length portraits. switch to the 105mm f/1.8 for 1/4 portraits [/QUOTE]
