Very nice for portraits.  It's not particularly sharp wide open, but that's ok, it's 
not bad either, and I think that the images generaly hold together well.  I have an 
8x10 of my 
daughter on the wall that I and everyone who sees it really likes it, and it was taken 
wide open.  

I've taken my 85 hiking on a few occasions and came back with some nice shots.  I 
prefer a little longer focal lenght (105) for general use but 85 seems to do fine here 
too.
