I am with the 28 camp.
Two reasons: 1) The 35 is not different enough since you already have a 50. 2) When you go digital you will have a 28 film and a 35 digital, which beats 35 film and 50 digital. Not sure that makes sense to anybody. Andreas

I am a 28 and 50 guy. I have a 35, but it always seems either too long or too short; in a one lens system, maybe. I have a 28 Summicron and it is a great lens, perhaps the best lens out there. The Voigtlander Ultron is highly regarded for much less money. I wouldn't feel underdressed with either lens.

for me 24, 35, 50 and 85 is the perfect combination with my slr, for the m-system i would prefer the same lenses: 24, 35, 50 and 90 (or 75).
i do not like 28mm too much - but that might be very subjective and irrational ![]() b. |

Figured I put my $0.02 in.
Years ago I have a 28/50/90 kit with my first M3. I found the 28 to be either to wide for most shots and a little narrow at times. I used the 50 most with that kit. I now have a couple of M3's and a M8. for both kits I use 35/50/90/135 (with bug eyes) and it seems to work well with both systems. Next lens will be a 24 f/2.8 for normal wide on the digital side and WIDE on the film side. I find right now I use the 35 most on digital and 50 on film but also like the 35 on film. I see no need for a 28 at this time but I still might get one of the Elmarit f/2.8 models when they become available just because of the lower cost. My suggestion is to get the 35mm f/2.0. |

My choice is 35 mm. Also have 50 and 75 mm. The 35 I use most, it is my standard lens. If I would buy another extra lens it would be a 21 mm. This is very wide on film and becomes a 28 mm on the M8.
