That Canon wonder lens again

The 85mm f/1.8 may just be the bargain of the century.

OK, admit it. At least some of you thought “Any lens is good stopped down” when you read this piece. Fair enough.

So here is a little bit of nonsense, taken at dusk yesterday, with some rather quirky statistics. ISO 50 as I want to force full aperture use, and 1/2000th for the same reason. Aperture? Why, f/1.8 of course, for all those of you thinking “F/1.8 can’t be any good for $350″.

Wrong!
