And the answer is: Yes it does. But, the real beauty of the FA* 85mm f/1.4
is the fact that it has great ability for available light photography. If
you need to use the RTF, just take off the hood. If you're a wedding
shooter, where 99% of your indoor shooting is with flash, then you'd
probably be better off with the 77mm Limited lens. You'll probably be doing
most of your shooting, with flash, at around f/5.6, anyway. Using the Metz
will work fine, too. I use a Metz 45CT4, a Quantum Turbo battery, and a
Sto-fen Omnibounce regularly. Very nice results with the FA* 85mm f/1.4.
Try it. You'll like it. It'll build up your muscles and endurance, too.
