Re: What is your holy trinity pf primes?

I only have three primes right now:  the Oly 25mm 1.8, the Oly 45mm 1.8, and the Oly 60mm 2.8.    So, I guess that's my holy trinity.

I am oh so very seriously considering getting the 75mm 1.8.  In fact, I think I have pretty much made up my mind that a purchase is imminent.  Once I get the 75mm ....  I don't know, I sure wouldn't want to part with any of my existing primes.  Maybe I will just have a holy quartet.

My choices lean to the long end, probably for two reasons.  (1) I confess that I do enjoy shooting with my iPhone (even though I know that's heresy around here), and I tend to want focal lengths that are different from my iPhone.  (2) I lean toward portraits and people shots for the most part, and I find the longer lengths more flattering.
