The 90mm f2 is as superb for non macro use as it is for macro. I
can't compare it with the other lenses you mention for the very
reason I bought mine instead of a 85mm f2 or 100mm f2. However, I
strongly suspect that neither of these would surpass the performance
of the 90mm f2. I think you are on the right track and would not
have any cause to regret acquiring one.
