Hi Paul and Alan
is Reala a negative film too or diafilm, I only know the Fujifilm Superia
types, in fact will use Superia 200?
Nobody advised me to carry the A-28mm 2.8 or M-35mm 3.5 with me when I 
have
the A 24mm so far.
Will I not miss the gap between 24mm and 50mm (or 35mm when I carry the
35-70mm A/4 zoom too) for landscapes.
I wonder if I should use a 28mm too for more "normal wide views".

greetings and thanks
Markus

Film - Fuji Reala should give you good contrast, saturation and
fine grain.
Talking about grain, I have recently discovered the scans from
Reala & Superia 400
looks the same on my computer.

Panoramas - don't just rely on a wide angle lens.  If you take
a tripod with
a pan head, take a series of frames of the panorama view,
overlapping each
by about 25%.  Later you can scan the negs and use stitching
software to
create the final panorama pix.
