I only got the 75mm because it happened to be the
shift lens which I got for a song (at the time). I've
never used the standard 75's so I can't comment on
those, but the shift is great if not slow in use, but
it is far from my favorite focal length. The 55mm is
better (think ~28mm in 35mm format), but like Mr.
Robb, I think I would prefer the 45mm (that's the next
one for me).

The 90mm is fine but limited because it's a "standard"
lens. It's easier to focus than slower lenses (at
least w/the 67II) and it is one of the faster lenses
for the 67.
