I plan to pair either lens with my XF 35 f/1.4 if I need an 'environmental' portrait.

Both (56 and 90) are spectacular lenses and produce stunning images. I have the 56 and love it. Whenever I think about getting rid of it, I look at the images that I took with it and I give up. I should probably stay with it forever, despite the little usage when use it I can take unforgettable images, after all, that's what photography is for.

56 - Most adequate indoor portrait lens.

90 - Most adequate outdoor portrait lens and general mid-range telephoto.

IMHO the 90mm is a better companion to pair with 35mm than 56mm. I see that you have the 55-200. Why you don't use it fixed FL in 90mm and walk around with the 50 and see what FL you like most to pair with your 35?
