I am thinking of ordering the 85mm f/1.8 lens within the next few days. I am looking for something really sharp w/ great contrast at a lowto moderateprice. It looks like this may be the only lens that falls into that category. Actually, it is at such a low price, Iwill be able to get a few otheritems as well! []

After I saw Garrett's photo in "Post Your Best Portrait" thread, I thought this may really be a great purchase! Before I was torn between the 135L & 24-105mm but the 85mm appears to come thru at alot less $.

Is anyone using the 85mm f/1.8 on a 7D? Are you happy with the results you're getting?

My current lenses i own are:
Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM
Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM
Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro L IS USM
Canon EFS 17-55mm f/2.8
Canon EF 50mm f/1.4

If I don't order the lens, I will probablyorder a monopod, beauty dish and of coursea shutter release I asked about earlier this week.

All feedback/suggestions greatly appreciated!
