UPDATE
The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being. I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure. ------------------------------------------------------------

Prime guys/gals:
Own 35 50 85 135, thinking about selling my 50
has anyone gone down this road and regretted it?
When I'm packing for a gig, I usually bring 35 85 135. or 35 85. or just 50L.
I love the 35A. it is great for environmental portraits of people. the 50L may be redundant for me now.
I shoot people, with a mark III.
The problem is that I've sold a 50L and came back after a year.
> 50L
lighter than 85L
faster AF than 85L
more versatile FL than 85L, if you could only pick one prime for an event, this is a good spot to be.
but the 35A can do the versatile thing too.
I just don't like to have all these tools laying around, seems like a waste.
I am considering selling my 16-35 2.8ii, 50L, and 24-70 2.8ii to help fund a 11-24 for my real estate work.
the 24-70 2.8ii
great zoom, I rarely use it, b/c I'm addicted to my primes.
it's laying around too much. 1.2 and 1.4 are just too much fun.
I will probably regret selling either the 24-70 or 50L, they are like family to me...
so I'm here to get help.
thanks all
