Are 35 & 50 too close together?

Re: Are 35 & 50 too close together?

Thanks, I hadn't thought of that, even though I have shot with the 50-230.

Only things I didn't like were lack of aperture ring and the wobbly barrel at the tele end bothered me when using filters.

These days though I am thinking that I will only use round filters on the X to keep overall compactness, so it wouldn't have to bear the weight of a square filter system (which I continue to use on GFX).

The 50-230 and the 16 f/2.8 (or 14mm, which shares the same filter size) would make a great light 'Galen Rowell' style landscape set.
