The reason why I have the 50 f2.8 and 90 f4 is to work under the same limitations that photographers did over two generations ago. I'm always amazed at how sharp, properly focused, and exposed the early material is. And that's with emulsion at ASA 12 to 32, with 50 being high speed. But that's where it stops, unlike many other list members, I'll use the very best BW film possible. I shoot my Acros 100 at ISO 50, but it's not quite the same. S.
