Why not try the 100/2 USM? I love it.

It's soft at f2, but that might not be a problem for portraits.

Indeed, it's a good point.

I thought about that lens as well, but in the end decided that it may be either too close to the 85 1.8 I already have or if I was going to stop it down a bit, it might be already at 2.8 where my 100mm macro kicks in.

Probably I should've gotten the 100/2 in the first place instead
