I've tried street shots with my 5D2 and found I liked using the 85 1.8 better than the 100 2.8L IS. It's faster, smaller and lighter by a large margin. Agreed the 100 macro is good for macros as well but it's 3x the price.

On a crop DSLR I think the 85 is also still not too long. I even prefer the 135 2.0L over the 100 L macro on a FF body mostly for the smoother bokeh and better bg separation. If I take my 60D into the street I always reach for the 35L. It works even into the twilight.
