But its ok to not buy every single lens.

When I got started in 1979 got a loan and got Balcars and a Hasselblad ELM
with a 150 Sonnar lens with a 220 back and a Polaroid back. A Gitzo tripod.

By 1983 I was about to round out the system with a normal and a wide.
An 80 and 50 of course. The CF's just out. A whole new kind of lens for
Hasselblad.

In the interim when I needed a normal I'd use my Rolleiflex.
When I needed a wide I'd back up.
