Still to see an 85mm never mind pick one up. 100 is just a touch too long for how I see me using this - In slightly cramped/close up kennels and/or bars.
Just had a quick look in this week's Amateur Photographer and one of their regular advertisers, 'Camtech' have both 85mm F1.2L (Mint-) at £495 and F1.8 (Mint-) at £165 which I suppose is about what you'd expect for those specs. Also, a 28mm F2 (Mint-) at £145
