It's not the size of the wand, but the magic you perform with it. Just because you can buy a 85mm f1.2 lens, doesn't mean you'll produce great portraits - you need to know how to use it.
On the subject of 85mm f1.2 lenses, I used one today and the depth of field is nuts. At f1.2 the tip of the nose can be in focus, but not the eye lashes (and before someone says the obvious, no the subject didn't need a nose job!)
