I love your pictures. I See i need a good portrait lens. In your opinion is the 85mm Samsung lens fast enough for slow moving portrait Fotos?

With NX500 (and probably NX1) Samsung 85 is fast enough, I took those pics from a marathon(mostly with 85, few with 45) and they were not moving slow:

About Samyang 135/2 - it's probably very nice lens and sharper than the 85, but I prefer MF for portraits on shorter lenses like 50mm. I'm interested at that lens, but for some landscape or concert shots.
