I only saw the one you posted here, the flowers (cosmos, one of my favourites, actually). Looks fine to me, a little bluish, but then, I am used to Canon lenses <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':mellow:' />. I'd say it is a little less bluish than a Tokina lens. Very easily corrected in PP anyway if you feel the need.
Bokeh in the background is great, close to the focus plane maybe a little busy, but only slightly more so than the Canon 85L. The photograph looks a little on the soft side, but that could well be a combination of the internet and the (small) size. Looking carefully I do think I can see the striae on the petals of the cosmos, so that would indicate it is a lot sharper than the photograph posted here can actually show.
I'd say that this is sharper wide open than the Canon EF 85 F/1.8, so that's very, very good indeed.
Kind regards, Wim
