Recently, picked one of these up. Can't wait to put it through its paces at Spring Training. I was a bit surprised that the minimum focus distance wasn't closer.
I got to use this lens last fall for some studio work. I was using it along the 70-200 VR1, the 85 was way sharper and much less exhausting after two hours, and having to move instead of zooming opened up some interesting perspectives.
