As the topic says, I finally got me a Canon 85mm 1.8 and so far I am really impressed! Here is a shot I took of my son while he was watching Cars the movie(which is why he wouldn't look at me...) This was shot with my 30d at 1.8, ISO 200.

Really sharp eyes!
But the image was taken at F2.5, not F1.8 (see exif) ;)

Very nice picture! Did you sharpen the picture in post processing at all?
Enjoy your lens! I need to bring mine out for some of my upcoming portrait shoots :D
