Noctilux: fast fantastic unique
35 summilux asph: when only one lens is enough
90mm elmar C; pocket size and handy even if slow

would be my group, but ifff I were happier with the TE that would be a 
good replacement for the 35 butttttt nothing beats the 35 asph really

 From your lens selection you may have to substitute the 50 lux

Cheers
