Thanks John :) I was getting paranoid at the silence... I too am an amateur and am working on a tight budget so cant afford the likes of the limited lenses, so I really tend to look at the "bargain" end of the spectrum. Perhaps I should break out my old screw mount equipment LOL

It may not be the perfect lense for that purpose, but it hasn't disappointed this amateur photographer. However, I don't have an 85mm or 77 Limited to compare it against. A new 135 is at least $320, so $165 might be okay for a lense in good condition.
