That being said, I'd go with the 35 Summicron first, and then get a 50.  You  
won't find the 35 making you uncomfortable. It's about as easy to use as a 50. 

But then, as a great photographer once said: "It's the easiest thing in the world  
to take a picture. It's one of the hardest things to do to make a good one."
