Tina,
The bokeh of the new 85 is just fine thank you.  Wonderful transition from
in focus to out of focus.  Even stopped down the look was very good.

I took a long look at the Crane papers.  They looked very good, and at a
better price point than the brand H offerings, but trust me, you will want
to check back in about a month when the Innova and Hannemuhle papers hit the
street.  Absolutely lovely.
