Of course, this is affected by where we live. In a rural area, I tend to favor longer lenses. I can see where wider lenses make sense in an urban environment, but all I would be doing is taking the same shot of the same hill. The daily variations in my environment occur on a scale that I really need a longer lens to pick them up. I think this is why the FA135 has become my favorite or why that F35-135 was so appealing.
