I have contemplated the thought of selling my 85mm 1.8 and Tamron 70-300 VC and picking up a Canon 70-200 2.8. I would definitely need to sell the 85 though... so here's the question. When you picked up a 70-200 2.8, what happened to the 85? Did you keep it? Get rid of it? Why?

It's interesting that you're asking about the 85/1.8 but you're not posing the same question about the 70-300, even though you will lose a ton of reach. Why is that? The answer might tell you what to do.
