I have the 200/4 and it is an amazingly good lens in every respect. Never used it for portraits, though. I think the 150 would be a better choice. A couple of times I've seen the 165/2.8 for the Pentax 67 pretty cheap and almost (but not quite) decided to buy it; it would work on the 645 with the 67-645 adapter. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
