I'm clearly in the minority here, but... I actually like the 0.85 with a 35, at least for handheld shooting, as I can keep both eyes open while I shoot, which I cannot as easily do with the 0.7. When the camera's on a tripod it's a pain, especially when the camera's mounted below eye level. But I bought the camera for eye level shooting. I want to get a 0.7 *also*, though; probably an M2.
