They are both great for portraits. The 85mm f-2 gives you a little more
light for focusing and composing. /jim

Subject: [OM] Portrait lens
Hello Zuiks,
I'm hoping to buy a "portrait length" lens and am wondering about two
lenses in particular, both of which i've found available locally: the
Zuiko 100/2.8 (with hood, $225 CAD or about $140 USD), and the Zuiko
85/2 ($295 CAD or about $185 USD).
I guess i'm wondering about people's experiences with these lenses,
keeping in mind that i'm wanting one mostly for portraiture purposes.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Sean D.
