I had just about settled on two M's and 35, with 50 or 90. One more pitch for the 35. It's better because... ... you can't back up through a wall, when shooting indoors. Rooms are probably on the small side where you are going. ... because it's easier to shoot your friends in a restaurant, without having to tip your chair back and risking a fall in to someone else's lunch. ... because on every trip I have ever taken, the 35 was better at shooting landmarks. --- when push comes to shove you can handhold a 35 at least a stop slower than a 50. ... unless it's a 1.4/35 Summilux ASPH, it's is smaller than almost any 50 and will let you pocket the camera. .... the 35 framelines on any modern M are more accurate than those for the 50. Have fun. feli _______________________________________________________ feli2@earthlink.net 2 + 2 = 4 www.elanphotos.com
