50/1.4 Summilux, and 75/1.4 Summilux. That's it!"

O.K., tell us why the 15 Heliar instead of, say, a 21 or 24?  The reason I
ask... I've been thinking of getting a 21 or 24 to complement my 35, 50 and
90.  You need a wide lens for those narrow streets, etc., but I would have
thought something a little less extreme.  Maybe the 15 as a 5th lens.
