I am trying to decide which medium telephoto to get to round out my kit. I am considering the 100/2, 100/2.8, and 85/2. I have been told that the 100/2 produces incredible images even wide open, but I wonder if it is that much better than the other two lenses. The 100/2.8 and 85/2 weigh much less, cost less, and use 49mm filters like my other two lenses. Is the 100/2 worth the difference in price and weight? I will be using the lens for portraits, travel and landscape photos. Also, is the best place to buy these lenses on ebay?

Thanks for your patience. Hopefully, soon I too will be able to provide helpful information to others on this forum.

My vote goes to the 85/2.  I dont think you would be disappointed with one.
