I use the following rangefinder lenses: 28, 35, 50, 90, 100, and 135 plus I have Canon FD and Pentax thread mount adapters. For my 35mm SLR's i have 14 semi-fisheye, 17, 18, 24, 28, 35, 38, 50, 55, 58, 100, 105, 135, 150, 200, 400, and 600.
 
I find that my 50-75-90 all seem to get the most use. I do use a 35 f/1.2 on my M8, but that covers the "normal" range there... and the 75mm gets the most use between my M8 and M9P.
 
Something wider in the 24- 28mm range when needs dictate. Also 75mm and 135mm for portraiture.

Could probably shoot everything I wanted with 35-50-75 though, with the 50 being the most used of the three, for me.
 
RF lenses currently are:
21, 35, 50, 85, 90, and 135.
I had a 15mm for a while and just didn't like my photos with it. I'd like to add 75 and, possibly, 18 to my kit. Not in any hurry to do so.

Have just added a CV 75/f2.5 and will be using only that one for a while as I try to learn whether it suits me or not.
Really like it so far!

18 is still a ways off, I think.

Have a 90 Summicron I use a fair amount.

Medium format (6x6) I use the Zeiss f4 150.

Digital my main lens is the Canon 24-70 f2,8.

On Nikon FM3a I use the 75mm f2.5 voigtlander ultron sc1
on the Leica MP - I now mainly use the 75mm f2.5 Summitar.

I use these in addition to the 50mm for both above cameras.
 
With my Nikons I usually use the 20mm f4, 24mm f2.8 and 105mm f2. I don't use the 35 or 50 much on 35mm since I prefer the equivalent focal lengths on my Mamiya 7.
 
My rangefinders are all fixed-lens, and are all 45mm except for one which is 40.

On other cameras, everything from a 10-20 zoom to a 55-300 zoom. With 35 and 50 primes in between, of course. ;)
