My dear Sir
Thank you for your insights. I know this is the general consensus and I would really like a 85L too, but at this time this is all I can stretch for. My next gear purchase will be a 5DmkIII (as you own yourself) and maybe some time later on I will get a 85L.
However, for my needs, I think a 85/1.8 will do fine. There's a guy who compared bokeh between a 50/1.8, 50/1.2 and 85/1.2 (the topic is somewhere on page one in the canon forum now) and That level of bokeh is way too much for my taste. I completely understand that a 85L can be shot at other apertures than 1.2, but the premium is too much for me now. My wish list contains a 5DmkIII (maybe two eventually), a 135L and a 85/1.8. Anything else may have to wait until the next decade
Stay good,

Hi Ralph,
No need to call me Sir, Glenn will do! . The 85 f1.8 is a fine lens and probably one of the best bang for buck lenses Canon makes. I've not seen any complaints about the quality it delivers so I'm sure you'd be extremely happy with it if you bought one. I had one a few years ago and loved it, but the 85L was calling my name!
