If you could have ONLY 1 prime lens...

If I could only have one lens and it would be a prime?  I would go back to the 50mm on this one.

Specious question. I wouldn't.

That said, the only prime I want is an 85mm. I quite dislike 50mm.

Yeah you can pry my prime lenses from my dead hand. I do a lot of landscape shots, and nature. So I would have to go with the 24mm, though I would rather have a prime zoom if I was forced to one lens.

Probably zeiss 21mm.

I would want either a 85mm or 35mm.  Tough pick, I think if I can only have one, then 35mm.
