Yes, but because of the crop factor your 85mm portrait lens is now a
132mm lens. Therefore for a portrait lens you would use say the 50mm,
hence a different DOF, no?

You correct Don. DOF is an issue for 1.5x cropped APS digital sensor
cameras. Of course, having said that its only an issue if you enjoy a
shallow DOF. For those who want greater DOF I guess digital is a
godsend. Personally I like the DOF of my current film setup, so a full
frame digital camera with no crop would be just the ticket.
DOF on the *ist D is more or less the same as film i.e. I'm still often
struggling to achieve a decent DOF only the cropped AOV is an issue
for me.
