Canon 85mm f/1.2
Yesterday, I got my hands on a Canon 85mm f/1.2 lens from Lens Pro To Go. I've rented from them before and I must say that they offer a great service at a very reasonable price (plus if you're a NAPP member you save 10 percent).
Anyway, I've been wanting to play with this lens for a while (I don't have $1700 to spend on a lens) and boy is it fun. The lens is HUGE, but that is to be expected with that much glass in it. Anyway, it takes some getting used to with the depth of field you can generate with this bad boy. Here are a couple of examples of some shots I took last night.

I love how it blurs out the background. I'll be having lots of fun with this over the next week before I have to return it.
