One lens for a crop I would take a 28mm........no doubt.

Do you have a Canon 28? If so, I would love to hear about your experiences.

It would be interesting to try to two pancakes though......24mm and 40mm. Very small and light and just fast enough.

Fascinating concept, two pancakes for a compact configuration!

Yes I have the EF 28mm f/1.8 USM.  I used and loved that on my crop bodies.  I found it needed to be stopped down to f/2.2 to make me happy.  The new 28mm f/2.8 IS might be a better bet although I haven't tried one.
