On the list I don't have 15, 18, 21, 24/25, 40, 75, 85/90, and 105. But I do have 100 and 200 LTM lenses plus I can adapt any Canon FL/FD or Nikon lenses I have such as 24 and 18mm lenses.
I also use Canon FD and Minolta SLR lenses with ltm adapters for 7.5mm, 19mm, and 21mm with my RF cameras. I use longer SLR lenses only with my M 4/3 cameras so that the focus is correct.
Just added a 21 SEM to a 35/50 pairing. Very, very impressive optic.
Depend on a Ricoh GR for 28. Toying with the idea of 75; in my Nikon days, 70mm on my 24-70 zoom was used a lot.
I would like something wider than a 35, but I'm perfectly happy with my 35/50 combo right now. I hardly have the time to shoot, so another lens means another lens collecting dust.
I'd probably like to get an inexpensive 90mm lens but I'd be more likely to add additional 35/50 with different characteristics. Whilst I love using a 19mm on my Contax139 (SLR) the inconvenience of a separate ( and expensive) viewfinder stops me lusting after anything wider than my CV25 for my M2 or LeotaxF
I have an M2 and a R2, and a 35/50/85 combo. The 35's a Color Skopar 2.5, that I'd love to upgrade to a Nokton 35/1.4 at some point. The 50's a Leitz collapsible Summitar f/2. My only leica glass, if you don't count the viewfinder of my M2. The 85's a Canon F/2 Serenar and is wonderful in every way. All are LTM on M adapters.
I am heavily invested in a Pentax 35mm kit, and don't have tons of money. So I decided to limit myself to what the framelines of my m2 would support natively.
Just a 35, a 50 and a 90mm for my M4.
I have enough trouble focusing the 90mm, therefore I don't want anything longer, but a 15, 18 or 21mm would be useful.
I usually shoot with a 21-35-75 or 35-75 kit and don't even own a M mount 50. However, I'm starting to like the 50mm-e on my XP1 and am considering getting a 50 for the M to use when I only want to have one lens with me. The big question is, which one?
