Right now, I have the 35mm f/2.5 PII. I've had the 25mm in M and LTM and a 35mm f/1.4 Nokton in the past. Currently looking for 28mm f/3.5 and 50mm f/2.5.
 
12/5.6 ASPH Ultra Wide Heliar
15/4.5 ASPH Super Wide Heliar
25/4 P Color-Skopar
28/3.5 Color Skopar (D)
35/2.5 C Color-Skopar
40/1.4 MC Nokton
75/2.5 Color Heliar

Out of control!!!!
 
none .... 🙁

but the only lens in 35mm I have is Jupiter3 and I yet have to shoot few more films to see whether I want to keep the R3A or not (purely just a matter of how the camera feels in hand and how it sounds). If the decision will be positive I will definitely get a few CV lenses (15, 25 and 75/90 for the start 😉 ).
 
On April 21, 2010:
1. 25/4 snapshot
2. 50/3.5 Heliar original
3. 50/2.0 Heliar original

These three lenses are superb.
 
Just awaiting a 12mm. The rest (15, 21 and 40) have been sold. I was not using them - anymore - , but instead was and am using my Leitz and ZM lenses. ... and want to try out the 12, don't know yet whether it will be a keeper.

Got the 12mm (the ltm one) and it is definitely a keeper. One of the sharpest lenses I ever had and what a terrific depth!

I've got the 35mm f1.2 and recently I bought the 40mm f1.4 SC on the classifieds.
My first impression with the 40mm was not that enthusiastic, but as I'm getting more and more accustomed to its handling, I'm now starting to love it. Plus, its image quality is outstanding and bokeh is nowhere as ugly as you can usually read, to me it's beautiful!
As for the 35mm f1.2, well, that's a completely different story. It would be my only lens, but its size (and weight!) discourages me to bring it with me as my everyday lens. I usually take it with me only when I go out with the express intention of taking photos, otherwise it rests on the shelf. Too bad, because it's an excellent lens and I feel a bit guilty of not using it as it would deserve.
