I am a big fan of portrait photography. My 18-200mm lens is very practical, but if you are looking for astonishing picture quality, fixed lenses are the best choice if you don't want to pay couple thousands of dollars. I had the 35mm, but it is not a portrait lens. Buying and using the 85mm, gave me a whole new experience with image quality, sharpness and colors. So far, I am very happy with the lens, and "it is worth every penny"; it is mainly what I say every time I get a phenomenal picture with it!
