My 2 fav Fuji lenses are the 35/1.4 and the 60, tho the 50-230 zoom is also up there. I originally used the 35/1.4 as my all rounder but now I use the 60 for my walk around in the parks or woods during the day. The 35 I keep for low light and night shooting. I also have the X70 and XF10 which are day time carry arounds also, but if I need quality and sharpness, I use the 60 with my XT10. The 60 I use for casual portraits and close ups of flowers and critters. Also it is great for medium range scenic shots and sunsets.

I got the 35mm f2, though lately, with so many threads comparing it to the 1.4, I am second guessing my choices. I took the 60 with me to my grandmother's 96th and took some really nice portraits. It gets just close enough to work in relatively cramped spaces as well. I could take nice shots of everyone but the people in my immediate right and left of the table.
