Just tried out my new 85mm, f1.8. The lighting was lousy ( in a gym), but the bokeh on this lens at f1.8 right out of the camera just blew me away! I've done nothing to this photo in photoshop.

    Agreed!!
    Yes......very pleasing bokeh. The 85L at f1.2 basically makes the background disappear! Heres one wide open @ f1.2..........
