Tina, When I used R's I owned and used the 80/1.4, and found it to be my most used lens. The 19mm/180mm were next. When I returned to increased M usage and had both the 75mm and the 80mm I used the 80 more and never have felt comfortable with the 75mm. It is a great lens. Happy snaps, Steven Alexander
