Last time I packed 24/2.8, 35/2 and 100/2.8. (A 85/2 could be a better choice, but unfortunately I haven't got one.) About 80% of the pictures were taken with the 35. I didn't lack my 50/1.4 a single time. A 35/2.8? Maybe I could do with it too. BUT: That extra stop seems to be important to have on a "normal" lens. Even F2 isn't too fast...
