The Sony will not perform that well at f1.4 <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Hihi, completely overlooked that in my reply. I couldn't actually think of any other 85 F/1.4, as the Nikon and Samyang were tested already <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />.
It is actually available, since the beginning of this month. That is why I suggested Sigma <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
The Sony 85 F/1.4 hasn't been tested in FF yet, however <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
Other than that, I couldn't think of any other 85 F/1.4. But then, I may have missed an announcement or two <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />. Oh wait, didn't Samsung announce a K-mount 85 F/1.4 last year sometime? Somehow, I don't think they'll continue to pursue that route now, however <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />. And obviously there is no K-mount FF body right now anyway. Of course there also is/was a Pentax A* 85 F/1.4, but again, no digital FF K-body.
My guess is still the Sigma <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
Kind regards, Wim <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I did not know the Sigma is available yet... Else I would have to guess the Sigma.
