I prefer the 85/2, with it's brigher image, abiltiy to work at f/2, and
close focusing correction. I'm also more comfortable with the 85-90 focal
length rather than 100. My 100/2.8 got sold last year in preference to the
85/2.

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.
