It's more or less a normal lens on the APS-C sensor cameras, (true 
normal equivalent to the 43mm on film), and a relatively slow normal 
lens at that.  I currently carry an A 24mm f2.8 for a wide, 43 ltd.as a 
longish normal and the M 85 f2 for a nice general telephoto as my 
walking around kit.  There really isn't a place in that lineup for the 
30mm.  Now if my widest rectilinear prime was a 20mm then I could 
replace the 43mm with the 30mm or the 35mm f2.0..

You get further with a kind word and a gun, than with a kind word alone.
