Personally, if I had to use only one lens it would be the 50 Summicron with the 35 Summicron running a VERY close second. (For me the 28 Elmarit would be a distant third.) The 35 Summicron is very tiny and makes the M6 very fast to use and pocketable as well. The 50 is a little larger and not quite so pocketable. Enjoy your new M6! kw >Hi.
