Generally I take the minimum stuff for the application . I own an M4 and an 
M6 and the Heliar 15 , the cron' 35 asph , the cron' 50 , and the tele 
elmarit 90 / 2.8 .
The 35 is the one I use the most .
I wish I had the TRI -ELMAR , it would be my everyday lens .
This week end I'm going to a wedding and I'll probably shoot with only the 50 
and one body
