My New (used) Canon 135mm F/2L

I got this from some guy today, off of craigslist for $600.00. I think I shot all pics at f/2, just changing the shutter. Can't wait to see what this will do on my film body, w/ b&w also with regular shots.

Outstanding color and contrast. Great bokeh, too. The 135L is one of Canons best lenses. Congrats.

Congrats on the great lens! I'm sure you'll get many years of great service from it.

^^^ This is my fourth L, I'm finding myself wanting more primes than zooms.


Thanks All

Nice lens Jupiter. . . That bokeh reminds me of the 100-400 L.

What lens did you use? I'd think that either a night game lit by those huge lights or a day game you'd have plenty of light to use without needing a 2.8 lens.

it was a night time game and i was using my 70-300 4-5.6 IS and was at ISo1600

most shots were around the 1/50th of a second, some spots i was getting around 1/100th
