I like the look of the 75mm focal length for faces plus the added stop throws the background out of focus totally. The 90/2 is a nice lens but harder for me to focus on the eyes at that length. I use the 90/2.8 least because it's a slower lens. It would probably be good for outdoor portraits though.
