Well I took your advice, and I am trying out a used 77mm from Adorama. If its not too beat up, the price is good enough that if i find a unicorn later I can still get the 85mm. This forum is terrible for LBA...pick two lenses? Why not buy both?
Well I did say to resell one Both the 77 and 85 should sell very well.

Good for you in picking up a 77!

Hi Yochang

Just buy both and then try and pick the one to throw out with the bath water
That extra or less one and a half steps, you will keep them both
Sorted

The first post was AF portrait lenses. It seems like full frame digital is the body. The AF version of the 90 2.5 seems worth considering. Also one of the 70-200 2.8 zooms would be useful.
