In my old Canon FD days, the Tamron 90 was my favorite -- over the Canon 85
1.2L and 1.8, both of which I had.  

On the other hand, a Canon 1.4 50mm will make a nice portrait and fast,
hand-held lens for the 1.6x sensors.  For B&W, I don't find I use macro
much.  I actually find the closest I usually get is with wide angles when
I'm doing a high DOF shot for perspective.  So, the wide 10 - 22 zoom with a
fast medium telephoto (e.g., 50 1.4) might be what I'll end up with.
