So I sold the latter and kept the former. The weight is similar but for my use the 85/2 balances better and I prefer the ZM close range performance. and then I bought one of my cardinal rules of not keeping more than one lens in too close focal length and kept the 75/1.4 lux because... Well, if there is any lens that define Mandler, it's the 75/1.4 'lux. -- // richard <http://www.richardmanphoto.com>
