Hi fellow members I am in search of a 3rd lens for my Canon EOS D1Mark 11
Camera, I already have a 16-35 L USM and a 28-300 L USM Lens in my collection, can anyone recommend a top class portrait lens ?

For potraits many think that around 90mm (35 mm equivilant) is where you want to be.

There are so many "good" port. lenses - what else would you like to gain? Take pix of? Will influence the answer.
