It is relatively hard to find and has very high reputation as a portrait lens without the softness associated with most vintage lenses.It has similar resemblance to the older Canon 100mm F2 LTM lens but with improved ergonomics and optical performance.
Its compact dimensions and solid build quality is perfect balance on Leica M Rangefinders. The lens is all metal construction with design consisting of focusing and aperture ring turning simultaneously. The lens produces sharp contrasty images and renders like newer modern glass. The Lens offers a relatively fast maximum aperture at F1.8. When shot wide open, it produces pleasant bokeh and smooth out of focus area. The image rendering is classic with natural and vibrant colours. This can be confusing during practical use as both aperture and focus turn at the same time. The Canon 85mm F1.8 LTM is definitely sharper and more contrasty than the Canon 85mm F1.9 LTM at their respective maximum aperture, this is partially due to their optical design. When shooting wide open, the bokeh of the Canon 85mm F1.8 is more smooth and pleasant in comparison to the Canon 85mm F1.9 lens. The size and weight of the Canon 85mm F1.8 is bigger and heavier than the Canon 85mm F1.9 lens. It is slightly larger in dimensions and around 100 grams more in weight. There is also a difference in applicable filter size for both lenses with 58mm for the Canon 85mm F1.8 lens and 48mm for the thinner Canon 85mm F1.9 lens. The lens has great colour rendition and produces contrasty images. It is an amazing lens for Leica M you wont regret buying, that is if you can find one.
