I must be missing something here...what is so offensive about someone
not seeing the point in working with a 50? I have to admit that about a
decade ago, when I came back to Ms after a decade or so of wandering in
the purely SLR wilderness, I bought an M4p with a 35 and 90, figuring I
really didn't care whether or not I have a 50...Yes, I have one now, and
I use it once and a while...but if told that I had to give up one lens,
at this point that would be the one to go....Okay, I know that it was
HCB's main lens...so good for HCB...;-)
