I'm on my second copy of the 85/1.8 (first one was way too old and wobbly), i'm more than happy with it. Even that old, dusty and wobbly pre-D copy was really sharp and produced great shots... Haven't had any CA or PF problems, at least not more than I had with the 77ltd... and for the price, I somehow prefer the 85/1.8...
It's actually a very boring lens, does everything so well you don't even notice it...
