Gee I sold my M85/2 about 2 years ago.  I read such mixed opinions about the lens but 
I always got great pictures with it.  I just didn't pursuit a replacement.

I have not used the 85 f/1.4, but do own the 77mm. For myself, I don't think
the 77 is well suited to portraiture, but that is just my preference. I
actually prefer the M/85mm f/2.
