        If it's half as good as the 105mm/f2 DC, then it's an
        outstanding lens.  I just got the 105 and it makes my
        180mm/f2.8 look like a dog.

        If you don't want the 135, I do.  How much are they 
        asking for it?   ;-)

        It makes a big difference in how smooth the background is.
        Sharpness and contrast suffer if you overdo it, though.  

        I need to play with it a bit longer to figure out just how much
        is enough.
