I already own the 35mm F2 and the 16 - 55 F2.8 for the X-T2.

For the purposes of events work, wedding in particular, which of the following would you add to the collection, ignoring price for the moment:

56mm F1.2

90mm F2

50 - 140mm F2.8

And why? Thanks.

If you have a second camera I suggest the 90/2. Coupled with our other lenses, you're in good shape.

If you have only one camera I suggest the 50-140/2.8.

You may want to rent the 50-140/2.8 first. I found it a bit weighty and for that reason only, I will not add it to my kit.
