hmm.. because i'm figuring that it might be a little easier on the pocket if i went that way instead of getting the 85mm f1.8. i dont know how much that 1 stop is worth thou.. the ability to do macro is a great bonus!

1 stop sounds pretty painful. but does that extra stop make a huge difference? i'm hoping to double the ISO and save the money.
actually, i would prefer the 60mm micro because i probably would end up doing more product than insects shots. 1:1 isn't super important to me anyway. but it seems that 60mm isn't good for portraits.
the 3 lenses work out to be almost the same price.

It depends on what you are looking for. What is a priority to you? Is it the perspective compression, or the versatility of having a slightly wider lens, which can also perform 1:1 macro.
If both lenses are set to the same focal length and same aperture and shot at the same distance, it should be more or less the same as far as perspective and background blur is concerned.
