So I'd be saving my money on a 90 for the simple reason of the 10mm's on either side are not going to make much difference to the above lenses. I think there are better goodies to come in this next year that your money might be better spent on. Besides the 80 & 100 are such wonderful tools to work with, I don't think a 90 would make any difference. A tad faster or not! ted
