I spent my money on a 35/1.4, because it's the lens for all seasons and
reasons. Then I bought a 28/2.8, because sometimes you just need something
wider and I couldn't afford a 21 and I don't like not being able to RF focus
the Skopar-25. Then I bought the 75/2.5, because frankly, who wouldn't? Then
I got a deal on a 50/2 on ebay (still hasn't arrived yet... held up in
customs). 

Now that 15 is looking MIGHTY good.
