Just Starting? Buy THIS Lens - The NEW Yongnuo 85 1.8 Review

Yongnuo is well known for undercutting everyone else on price in the photography industry. But can that business model produce a great lens? Let's find out! Also, be careful, as Yongnuo hasn't done a great job of differentiating between this lens and the previous version. They have the exact same product name. But the New one lacks a red ring, with a silver one instead.
