[OM] Re: another 135mm, focal length no one likes

Ali,

It depends on what you want. I like the 135 for tightly framed head 
shots, and it can even be used for head and shoulders, although many 
will prefer something in the 80-100mm range for that. It is mostly a 
matter of taste and what kind of perspective you are looking to attain.
