An A*85/1.4

I might ask Santa for the 200mm f2.8. That is one beautiful lens...

+1, although I'd settle for an A*135/1.8!

I got my Christmas present in August when I picked up a DA 55-300mm F4-5.8 ED WR. My parents picked up the tab for my birthday so it seems a bit much to expect something like it for Christmas too. I did buy a 40mm pancake lens from another forum member and if I am lucky it will arrive for Christmas. If money was no object then I'd like the 100mm Macro WR.

Either or both of the A*85/1.4 or A*135/1.8 would pretty much complete my quest.
I have no desire for anything longer than my DA*300 because it would necessitate a bigger bag.

Sigma 70mm or Pentax 35mm Limited

Santa is already bringing me a new Tamron 70-200mm F2.8 Di LD Macro.
I'm pretty excited.

I never knew that the A*85 F1.4 was so coveted. Makes me even more thankful to have owned one for about 30 years. I too will wish for the A*135 F1.8. Next year the A*200 F2.8. Year after the A 50 F1.2 (0r do I want DA*55 F 1.4?) Guess I have some time to think about it. Sorry I couldn't leave it at just one. LBA!

Already got an early Christmas present in the form of a Zeiss 50/2 ZK Makro-Planar (can already tell I'm gonna love it). That aside, the one else I'd put on my list is a Voigtlander 125/2.5 SL APO-Lanthar.
