Thanks. I'll have to peruse the technical charts once more :-)
Since the 90/2 is, for all practical purposes, out of my reach, I'll
probably settle for a 50/3.5. Since that means no 90 lens, I'll now need
something along that focal length for general use and portraits. I was
thinking 85/2 as it has a 49mm filter, and the 200/5 for the same reason.
