100mm f/2.8L IS Macro vs. 90mm f/2.8 TS-E vs Calibrator for Wedding Details / Product Photos

I've got some Amazon credit to spend and haven't gotten a macro lens yet. Any advice or photos that you can share to help me with my decision? I like that the 100L is relatively cheap and autofocuses, and I like that the 90 TS-E can tilt its depth of field to match a flat object at an angle. I work a 9-5 where product photography and video comes into play. And then I shoot weddings on weekends. I can also cheap out for a while and just get a color calibrator with the credit that expires next month and just save up funds for the 135 f2 APO and the 1DX II in the meantime. Those are items that have my emotional attention at this moment, haha.

Theres alot of info and questions crammed into this post. Im not really grasping everything that's going on in it but Ill just talk about that first part.

Right off the bat I'm not sure this is the right place for this questions maybe gear reviews. I also think you should ask one question at a time.

The 100L and the tilt shift are sooo different I really dont know how to answer this. So you want to take macro shots? The tilt shift is really a specialty lens for mostly architecture I think (and doing that miniature look)

Well, to my knowledge, TS is used in product photography to prevent keystoning and distortion as well as change the plane of focus to match a flat product at an angle. I want to take close-ups of products and rings, but I'm not sure if I'd rather stop down to f/10-f/22 on a macro with autofocus and image stablization, or manual focus at f/2.8-f/10 without is (maybe bring a tripod in the rolling case?!) just to get that commercial ring look.

I think its more about the lighting in product stuff but Im really not sure. If you are talking about ring shots at a wedding go for the macro and if you are talking about product shots in studio try out the tiltshift I guess?

I've got both.
I've never tried using the TSE90 with tubes.
You've got the TSE24, so you pretty much know the T/S drill.
The 90 is nice for product and food photography, along with the miniature effect.
Minimum focus distance is about 18".
The IS on the 100 is nice to have on a short tele. It's an outstanding lens.
Let me know, I may have some time on Sunday to do some comparisons. If you use tubes you start to limit the ability to control the sharp plane of focus as well because you are increasing the distance between the front element and the sensor.

My advice: save your money for buying two 5D4s later this year.
