        If you're copying documents, or something similar (flat 
        surfaces / straight lines), you'll notice a bit less distortion 
        and a flatter field with a 60/2.8 than with the 85/1.8 on a 
        tube.  If you're photographing anything else, you'll never 
        notice the difference.

        You might want to consider getting a reversing ring.  I 
        haven't used the AF version, but my MF 35/2 makes a
        surprisingly good macro lens when mounted backwards.
