I do have the 21, 28, and 35 with the 50 Summicron. But I plan on doing some detail photos at the Sagrada Familia and other places, which means I need a tele of some sort, which for me means dragging one of my DSLRs along, either the R8DMR or the D4.

I travel with the Noctilux and 35/1.4. That's all I usually need. If I added anything, it would be the 90/2.0 and the 75/1.4. If I thought I would be doing a lot of landscapes, I would take the 24/2.8. That's it. All of them very old, all of them very good.
