I much prefer wide angle cameras, love it when the sensor tech improves a lot though
My thing is wildlife, usually birds, so a wide angle is secondary to me. I can shoot at 27mm if I have to but that lens sits in the bag 99% of the time. I have a very good 50mm f1.4, which is 75mm equivalent on my Sony, and it sits around a lot, usually on my 35mm Minolta Maxxum XTSi.
