Definitely my favorite for portrait photography. I had the Canon 85mm f/1.2 L II USM prior to I got this one, and I considered this an upgrade. The Canon brand name concentrated painfully sluggish, and half a stop of difference was not worth the extra dough. Features original box and everything that was in it. If you have any concerns, Email me. Images are of the actual lens. Asking $850. 77mm B+W UV filter offered separately.
