Hello, I was wondering what people think of the Canon 85mm f/1.8 lens (black one) in Leica SM?
Does anyone have some example images that they can post? How is the bokeh? Is it sharp(ish) wide open?
I'm asking, because this lens intrigues me as an inexpensive alternative to one of the earlier versions of the Leica 90mm Summicrons, or perhaps even a poor man's 75mm Summilux.
The Canon is also significantly lighter than the above Leica lenses, it weighs 470g, while the 75mm summilux is 600g, and the earlier 90mm Summicrons are 685g. The current black version of the 90mm f/2.8 Elmarit is 410g for comparison...
THANKS for your input, regards
