The current models are truly outstanding. Personally, when I had only a 50mm, I always felt I lacked perspective control and that my shots looked rather bland and constrained. I'm NOT arguing about optical quality, but rather a more general creative usefulness. Actually, I never understood why cameras come with a 50 mm lens... I simply can't imagine you'd feel sorry for yourself if "stuck" with a single lens, a well-chosen 35mm one.
