Yes but at f2, your focussing has to be spot on. I sometime miss the mark.

I have used both and am beginning to like the perspective of the 75.

I find that at f1.4, focussing is critical and one can find this harder to
master compared to the 90 at f2. At f2, the 75 is very nice to use with
adequate DOF to get a higher percentage of sharp shots. The .85 M6 camera
makes focussing easier on both lenses.
