I think the following is an interesting observation about the bokeh of the Canon 35mm f2 IS, and can be of value to this discussion. I've been thinking about buying that lens myself, but after seeing this I'm reconsidering my options. I think the Tamron 35mm f1.8 VC looks like the most promising lens right now.

That is indeed quite distracting.

that review of 35 f2.0 IS is not fair and pretty foolish if you ask me! i have used the best canon and other top brand lenses for background bokeh--they turn out horrid when there are random tree branches and foliage!

This is a big generalization. After all, that page has samples of good bokeh with trees and branches, as well.
