A Different Look

This lens is where you really begin to stretch your legs with telephoto, the ability to get sharp photos from across a room is why for event photographers this lens is an ace up their sleeve. The fast aperture of f/2 means that this lens also allows you get the shutter speed needed to freeze the action of indoor sports from court side. Not to mention that at this focal length you can get some great depth of field compression when taking portraits. If you need to reach a little farther than an 85mm or are looking for a different look to your portraits, this lens is worth considering.Read full review

Must have lens even in 2023!

This is an awesome lens to have even in 2023. Images are sharp and gives a really nice subject separation and 3D pop! AF is blazingly fast and accurate. Sigma 135mm f/1.8 is the superior lens to this but it's more costly and a lot heavy. Sigma version is a tiny bit slower to focus. This Canon lens works beautifully with the Canon 2x iii extender after stopping it down to f/5.6. That'll give you 270mm on full frame, quite sharp too. Just wish this had weather sealing. No regrets buying this lens. Works flawlessly with my EOS R.Read full review

Sharpest Lens ever, Best blur background, Best in Low Light

This is the best lens;

1) Most Sharpest Lens
2) Best bookeh (blur background)
3) Best in low light
4) Best for portraits (but have to maintain distance / challange)
5) Best headshot
6) Best Value

Now I bought Canon EF 85mm 1.2L. I love this lens. I use 135mm F2L prob over a year. I am not technical I just compare results for each shot. If you are wedding photographer, if you can manage distance thing then 135mm F2L is the best. For me I dont have that much patience, in tight environment its hard to manage so I decided to try out 85mm F2L. I am happy with my decision. Although 85mm is almost more than double price. But if you are not in wedding and not in indoor pictures then go for 135mm F2L.

135mm F2L is super sharp lens. It has best bookeh. I wish, if there is 135mm F2L mark2 there. But I would say EF 85mm F1.2L is way better than 135mm F2L in all aspects. 85mm small as compare to 135mm, super sharp, good bookeh not good as 135mm though. And distance challenge is over in 85mm.

Whether you buy 135mm F2L or 85mm F1.2L, both lens are quality lens and you won't be disappointed with anyone.

The perfect lens

I bought this lens because I had heard great things about it's ability to produce sharp images with beautiful bokeh. Now that I am an owner all that was said is true. This is now my go to lens for sports and events. Coupled with a 2.0 aperture makes this a perfect lens for low light situations and it does really well with finding its target quickly and silently. I would definitely recommend this lens to any photographer who wants solid performance, quality and sharp images in a creative style and look to purchase this lens... I promise you wont be disappointed.Read full review

Favorite Lens

Canon's 135mm F/2 L USM is my overall favorite lens for the following reasons: great for street photography capturing candid moments of passersby, sharp portrait lens with beautiful bokeh, quick focusing even in low light, this lens provides me freedom to photograph from a distance and capture those intimate moments between husband and wife, children playing, or animals. I love the color contrast and for me, rarely have a problem to correct in post production. I recommend this lens to anyone who demands sharp images, focus accuracy, and flexibility in capturing any subject.Read full review

My Favorite Lens

I love this lens! It's focal length and wide aperture make it easy to blur out backgrounds whether you are taking portraits of of people or pets. It's even useful in some types of landscape and general photography when you want to isolate a particular point of your composition from others.Read full review

Fast and sharp

This lens was offered as used. It looked like brand new and also handles as such. The auto focus is lightning fast and the pictures are tack sharp, even at f/2. It's my favorite lens now.

The world best Canon is 135mm F2L

The Canon EF 135mm F2.0L USM has been in Canon's lineup since the late '90s but remains justifiably popular for its fast maximum aperture, good optical quality and typical L-series build quality.
Images quality / Sharpness is out this would, it's that good.
I would recommend for any shooing situation, from studio portraits to street photography. Focus is fast and accurate.

Best Canon lens ever.
