I'm going wider, and once you start.. I kinda want to go even wider, but 28mm is too much. Also my 50mm is the cheapest sony and it's terrible at focusing (and as you can see i shoot fast subject). The cheapest 50mm with a fast AF seems to be in the 600$ range... So maybe i'm thinking the Viltrox ones, 50 or why not 40mm.

Like all your images.

I'm not a street photographer per se. I just photograph in the street (there IS a difference). In film days I used 50mm a lot. Now I've got myself a 46mm (eq., shoot M43). It was, for some unclear reason, my dream focal length back in the day, but I couldn't motivate the cost since I had a 50. I love the one I have now. It's hard to explain or even understand, but those 4mm make a difference. It of course is in my mind. It "works" for me. Think that's how it iw. It's not so much about reach, more about how you see things and finding I focal length that plays along with your inner view. Oh well, that's just an epiphany I've had. YMMV. :-P
 
I don't really have that kind of relation to focales lengh i have to say, it's really about letting me get the shots i need! It's entirely fonctional!
 
They are all excellent Orioto, each has its own story. I also appreciate the photographic quality, which seems to be a constant in your work, unlike many others, especially on this forum. Congrats!
 
Thx!
