So do you guys use or subscribe to the idea of a "walk around" lens to be able to use it for everything? And if so do you generally go with a zoom or a prime for that?

Yes, it should be a roughly 24-70mm zoom.

That has been the standard since like the 80s.

If you need a prime than it must be a 50mm. Therr is a reason it is refered to as the standard focal length.

hmm I wonder what I should pick as my walk around lens. I got 2 pancakes, neither in 50. A 35 but it is big and heavy, and a 50, but it is a bit bigger than the pancakes
>>
>>3102073
For ym video stuff I use a 24-70mm equivalent parfocal stabilized, for everyhting else a 40mm equivalent
>>
>>3102091
>>3102093
>it must be 50mm

IT was the standard. On full frame. Just to point out that if the person has ASPC, they want a 35 to get that FOV.
>>
>>3102164
Nah like I got a m43 so what I have is
14-42 pancake
20 mm pancake
17.5 mm, but it is f 0.95
cheapo 25 mm panny which is basically the 50mm 1.8 of m43

Like I'd be much more likely to use either pancake or the 35 than the 50 really

this is the most aesthetic chink shit that I've ever seen

I use either a 28mm or a 50mm. Obviously when using primes you fall into situations when you wish you had either a longer lens or a wider lens. For 95% of situations I feel comfortable with either prime. Not to mention the size and weight is as good as it gets.

it's all about personal preference I hear people using a 24mm or 21mm as a walk around lens or something like an 85mm. I myself have walked around with an 85mm and while it's not very useful it changes your photography enough to be enjoyable.

Literally a straight Minolta X-300 copy. It is a Seagull (unsure of model number).

They produced the X-300 with the same machines, and just continued to produce it with a new badge once Minolta stopped production.

Went on to the late 90s or early aughts actually.

Meter is prone to failure, and QC was pretty low.

No.

Generally speaking, a 18-35mm Sigma Art or 14 mm + 35 mm prime are covering a lot of situations on APS-C, but it's still just not optimal to use only one or two lenses.

Maybe I'll get lazy like that again at some point, but for now I am not.

What's the point of using a slow 3.5 manual lens?
>>
>>3102433
It takes pictures, anon.

>>3102433
it has a really nice look and feel on B&W film, and it's Ok with colour. It is surprisingly sharp on film but it aint great on the sony though it isn't much worse than my Voightlander 35 color-skopar. All in all it's pretty good for a 65 year old lens.
