Hung Pham -- That gorgeous photo of yours (originally seen on FM forum) with this soft skin tonal transitions, along with a wedding I shot this summer with a CPS loaner 50L, convinced me to pull the trigger yesterday and order the 50L. Should be here in a few days. Thanks!
OP -- I'm keeping my EF 50/2.5 macro to be my "knock-around lens" and it has outstanding IQ at the smaller apertures of 5.6 and up. I'm glad to see you are doing the same with your original 50/1.4.
Gone will be my last Zeiss lens: a Contax 50/1.4, which although awesomely sharp and contrasty has zero AF and zero "cream" -- well not ZERO cream, but not 50L dreaminess. My Contax 50/1.4 saw less use after I got a Leica 60/2.8 macro -- really an amazing lens if I want manual focus, and I love it color rendition and close focusing.
You will love the 90 TS-E. If you own the 135/2, you'll have an amazing portrait set up: 50L, 90TS-E and 1352L.
Have fun!
