Just wondering exactly how...not sharp...the 85 is wide open.
Do you think I'd be genuinely disappointed by it and end up using it at 2.2+ or is just a...yeah it's not quite as sharp but who cares...kind of deal.
I'd be using it on a 450D by the way so I guess that's something to factor in.

I had an 85mm which I found perfectly useable at f1.8. I did tend to stop it down to 2.2 or 2.5 but that was more to avoid the purple fringing which the lens is prone to.
I now have the 100mm f2 and I regularly use it wide open, because it's already sharp.
