Ok, but how good do you guys think that the 2nd one will be for portrait, especially if one wants to do flash-less photography. My inclination to the 1st one was due to the fact that it can perform well in low light also. For the macro one, dunno how much i'll be using it for macro. So what you guys are saying is that better to trade a slower speed lens to have macro capability?

Anyone else have an opinion?
