I use the 75/1.4 and the AF Nikkor 85/1.8, whi= ch is considered to be significantly sharper than the 80-200/2.8 zoom. While= the 75/1.4 is only marginally sharper than the 85 Nikkor at f/2.8, it has= a much more pleasing tonal rendition and the boke (which never was Nikon=B4= s strength) is far nicer. I remember the Pop Photo test of the 35/1.4, 50/1.4 and 75/1.4, but, to b= e honest, I don=B4t trust Pop Photo tests at all. Carsten
