I ordered a ttartisan 50mm f1.2. It was way cheap and from all the discussion here - you pretty much have to manual focus the Fuji 56 anyway. I has not arrived yet - but all the reviews say it is good - not quite as good as the Fuji 56 - but also - for $100 a good deal. With that - I can also get the 50-230 or stretch to get the 55-200

If you finally decided for portrait lens, very good option is Sigma 56mm f1.4. If you are not used to manual focusing, it will not be easy with f1.2 lens. Nevertheless enjoy your new lens!
