Nah! The 24mm is the perfect all-purpose lens. Just remember what Capa said:
"If your photos aren't good enough, you're not close enough." The 24mm is for
up-close and personal photography. Keep a subject prominent in the foreground
and you can't hardly go wrong . . .

	--> There's a whole lot going for the 28mm focal length.
	Even if very close to the 24mm, there is a very noticeable
	difference. I would argue the 28mm may be more conservative
	but closer to the way many people see things.
