the Canon 85/1.8 lens is GREAT. But remember on a 1.6x crop factor body, it's pretty narrow for portraits. Outdoors I guess it's fine (it is by FAR my favorite lens), but for outdoors it might be nice to have a zoom lens even for portraits. *shrug*
I have a Sigma EF 28-105 lens on my camera here in Afghanistan and it's quite versatile. It's no "L" lens by any means, but it's pretty handy (and small... and light...). If you DO prefer a prime lens, the 85/1.8 really is probably the best bang for the buck. A 50mm or wider may be better for a 1.6x body for portraits though.
