Oh, that makes sense. Yep, I should have bought the 35 instead of the 50. Mind you, the fifty can be fun now and then. All lenses are!
On the wide angle side, I have 10-20 4-5.6 and it's ginormous. The 10-20 3.5 would be a total get left at home to save back strain lens. I much prefer my 15 limited, based on weight alone. Also, flare control is very important in a wide and the 15 is the best in this regard. 10-20 is for "real estate agent shots" - interiors and the like. At 10mm people quickly get really small, at 15, people can still be part of the subject. So you need to decide if you need ultra wide or just wide.
