nice lens for both macro & portrait imho.

This bokeh issue is a never ending story. This term is
highly subjective. If a bokeh is considered as "bad or
good" depends o a lot of factors.
The FA*85/1.4 and the 77/1.8 are indeed quite
different in their bokeh characteristics. Which one is
better depends on what you are shooting and how do you
want the picture to look like. It appears to me that
both lenses are designed with particular boheh
characteristics in mind.

Don't get grouchy. I disagree with you as well (well,
in some not all of your points ;-).
Enjoy,
