Woody, all,
I see the great results from the Sigma 1.4/50, I meanwhile am so convinced that I will order this lens for my D700.
Question is - what about the Sigma 1.4/85? Would this lens not be an even better portrait lens on a FF DSLR? I owned myself the 1.4/85 Nikkor and it was razor sharp, but I ended up to keep it most of the time in my back pack instead of using it. Was a bit slow (AF) and did not convince me so much as a portrait lens, maybe too sharp? Would the Sigma be better? Any ideas?
