I like to shoot 50mm most of the time but there are some scenes that come up that needs a 35 or 28, which, one or the other is already mounted and ready to go. Of the 5 lenses I have from 21mm to 90mm the 50 and 35 get most of the work. The other thing about shooting with 2 bodies is you are probably always going to have a camera with film in it.
