Canon 85mm 1.8 - best on crop, or FF? Which do you prefer?

So maybe this is a silly topic with many variables but interested what people think. I realize some people only have crop, or FF, some have both, some have 1.3x crop (let's just group them into the FF crowd). Some factors:

85mm 1.8 is much cheaper than the 1.2 or Sigma version, so more people with Rebels/crop might own it.
On crop, 85mm has the same FOV as 135L does on FF. Personally I like using it this way.

If you like the 135mm FOV, its a great lens.

It's technically "better" on a FF if your strictly going for bokeh. Simply because you can get closer to your subjects for equal framing. Closer = more fuzzy gooey bokehlichous blurrr

I know people disagree but I have always found FF lenses work much better on full frame cameras.

Same here. Works much better. But I'm not chasing birds with long zooms.

It was one of the first lenses I bought. I liked it when I had a crop but I do like it more on a FF, primarily because I like to shoot in landscape orientation far more than I used to on a crop.

I use it a LOT more than my 135L.

I voted EQUALLY

I don't own a FF, but I love the 85 1.8 on both my crop bodies. Admittedly, I don't use it as much these days, but at times while shooting my daughter's sporting events, 2.8 just isn't fast enough to get the SS I'm comfortable with. I don't always use it, but it's always in the bag....

I love it when I need lighter lens for indoor studio shoots with FF camera. Like it for full body shots. With 50mm I have to get too close.

It's a nice range for outdoor portraits on a FF--and unbeatable on a crop for indoor sporting events.

I voted equal. it is great on FF but I more often than not use the 50/1.4 so I don't use the 85/1.8 a lot. On FF I'll use it for street/candids & sometimes for portrait sessions I'll use both the 5D2/50 & 450D/85

I like it better on my crop than FF. Its a bit long for indoor shots but outside, its perfect for me. I prefer longer focal lengths for their background compression but larger DOF.

I haven't used it on a crop, but on my 5DII I find the 85mm focal length more useful than the 135mm length. In fact, it's one of the lenses I use most.
