I am a wide angle L nut. I have a 14L, 24L, 35L and 20-35L. The 35 is a wonderful, sharp lens. However, after I purchased a used 20-35/2.8L lens, I can't remember the last time I used it. Somehow a prime 35 just doesn't seem that useful. A 24 on the other hand, still gets used a lot. Oh yes, it's also very heavy.
