Replace my 24-70f/2.8L II with a faster 35f/1.4L II? Prime speed and IQ vs zoom versatility

Re: Replace? No. Add a 35mm? Yes.

I answered the really small question with a Rebel SL1, 24mm f2.8 IS USM, EF-S 24mm STM pancake and 40mm f2.8 STM pancake or 50mm f1.8 STM. The 85mm f/1.8 also goes really well with that body. 24/50/85 are around 38/80/135 so works out well for cheap. The bonus is that most of the lenses also work fine on the 6D.

I also hope Canon updates the SL1 to a better sensor. Neat little camera!
