    f1.4 was not even in my consideration since it is out of budget. 85mm f1.8 is an excellent portrait lens with great auto focus in combination with my A7III. The bokeh difference is not that much of a compromise compared to 85mm f1.4 , may be little bit of low light advantage. For most of the people out there this is 85mm I would recommend.
