no you're not the only one - they are all very different.  I am 
starting to think of the 28 as being a standard lens with 35 being not 
enough and the 50 as a short tele - perverse I know.  I used to think 
of myself as a 21-35-90 person and I now wonder if it should be 28-50 
and NO 90.   In the parallel SLR world I can hear the discussions of 
180 not long enough, 400 too long maybe 300 is just right :)
