On the xpro2 the 56 f1.2 is much quickier than the 60, they are both sharp lens in their range. The 56 becomes very sharp from 1.8 to 8 the 60 becomes very sharp from 2.8, 2.4 is still very good. The 56 was developed for portriats in mind so it gives more pleasing skin tones and colors than the macro 60. The 56 and 90 are both amazing portriat lenses the 60 is a amazing macro but not as amazing for portriats, the reason many pros will not use the 60 for portriats. The 56 also focuses much quickier in low light than the 60 on the xpro2. Both are great lenses but serve different purposes. The 60 can focus at a much closer distance than than the 56 and that is what the 60 was designed for. There are plenty of reviews out for both lenses but it basically comes down to your personal needs and uses for the lens, if it's portriats the 56 and 90 hands down. If it's for general use its more of a toss up and if it's for macro the 60.
