If you could only have 3, 6, or 9 lenses for your M system?

Heh...

I actually only have 3 lenses! Well... that I use anyway...

  • Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS II
  • Canon FD 50mm f/1.8
  • Canon EF-S 55-250mm IS II

Honestly, these 3 lenses provide me everything I need for my modest photography skills and desires. I really like using the manual-focus 50mm FD lens. If I were thinking about what I'd actually like to have eventually (and perhaps this is the direction I should move):

  • Canon EF-M 11-22mm
  • Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4
  • Canon EF-M 55-200mm

I have a Sigma 18-250mm zoom, but it's too heavy and doesn't work quite right with my M50, so it's going to a new home shortly.

I don't see me having more than 3 lenses realistically. I've always been a simplistic guy and having a lot of gear isn't something that appeals to me. With my telescope, I only have six eyepieces whereas a lot of my astro-friends have hundreds of them (they seem to reproduce like rabbits!).
