I use my R lenses in this order:

90mm 2.0 Summicron
50mm 2.0 Summicron
28mm 2.8 Elmarit
180mm 2.8 Elmarit

Lately I've been using the 50mm lens a lot more because I've been taking
lots of indoor shots in low lighting situations, and have to rely on using
depth of field to get my subjects in focus.  The fresnel focusing aid is
almost useless in these situations, and the ground glass is not precise
enough.

I do shoot a range finder, but it's an old Canon.

The 180mm lens is not as sharp as my others lenses, but still is of higher
quality compared to pictures taken with your consumer grade AF SLR's.
