5D for portrait, product, walkaround, snapshot, no fast shot necessary, the most important issue is cash. (Even my plan is TS-E 24, 35L, 85L, TS-E 90, 300L f4 IS)
Similar price, what is the best choice for now?

1.85L, 50 f1.4, 100 macro
2.135L, 35L, 100 macro
3.85 f1.8, 35L, TS-E 90
4....or other ?

tks.

5D for

portrait = 85L, 85/1.8, 135L
product = TS-E 90 (i don't believe you'll need a 1:1 macro)
walkaround = 24-105L (prefably a zoom)
snapshot = 50/1.4

i think you should slowly build up your set-up. get one lens at a time, maybe the 24-105L first, and then see what you're lacking. then buy the next lens based on need (or want) and see where it takes you.
