I just received my 85mm lens on Monday; seems plenty sharp at f1.8 and 1/50 second. I'm pleased.

Wow. 1/50 handheld? You've got steady hands, my friend. Good job.

Not as steady as it would seem; I was seated, and probably rested my elbows on the table.:D

I love how sharp and accurate this lens is. However, I hate how POTN stretches the image in the post body so that you have to right-click and "view image" to see it in the correct size.

^ My browser doesn't do that to images - maybe it's a setting?

Really? What the hell? What resolution is your monitor?

I use firefox as my browser, but don't have a different browser installed to check.

Thanks so much!!!

Yeah - it's a super-crop, too, which is why it looks really grainy and stuff.
