Maybe get a 75 instead?
If I had an M8 I'd "trade in" my 90 for a
75mm f/2.0 APO Summicron M Aspherical Manual Focus Lens (6-Bit, Updated for
Digital)

75 * 1.33 = 99.75

I'm be tempted to think of it as my 100mm lens.

As that's TOO round a number to forget.
It would make you want to use it more.


... For when a photographer needs that triple digit focal length.


90 * 1.33
= 119.7
 

A 120?
Never heard of it!
Its short for when you want long and long for when you want short!
Who needs THAT?!
