That is pretty much what I have. 24mm 2.8, M50mm 1.4, 135mm 2.5 (though this is a Takumar, oh well... :)) I found that the wide angle is great for spec applications. The 50 is the most used one for sure. (low light, general app) But the 135 is just too long. I can only use it to do portrait outdoor. If I'd have a huge studio I could see it being useful, but not for general portrait work. This is why I am looking for an 85mm. I will probbaly keep the 135 unless one of my Hungarian friends will really want to take it off my hand. It's not really worth money if you know what I mean. I also have a 50-250 Tokina ATX zood. If I even need zood, it's there, so the 135 is really NOT doing me much good.
