I am struggling to find one of Nikon's new 85mm G lenses anywhere and am looking at other options for portraits, I have a nifty but sometimes want to be a little more candid so need more reach. I was looking at another thread at the 16-85 but it seems it isn't fast through it's focal length (f/5.6 at 85mm).
So I am wondering about my options. Are there any third party lenses that fit the bill, ie fast at 85mm or shortish zoom lenses that are fast throughout their focal length (without spending thousands!)?
Budget is around £500 and needs to be available from Jessops as I have a load of love2shop vouchers to spend and Jessops is the only photographic outlet I can find that takes them.
