Don't omit the 85/2 automatically because the 50/1.2 is so good. The 85 is
amazing. And how are you going to get a tight head shot with a 50?

I picked up an almost mint condition 85/2 right after Christmas. It's now my preferred lens. Compared to the 50/1.2 it performs much better wide open and stopped down at least two stops. Images on my 85/2 wide open and at 2.8 can barely be differentiated from those at 5.6 and 8. Simply an amazing lens. Wish I had one earlier.
