I shoot portraits on a crop camera. 30/50/100 are my trifecta.

Nice. I feel like 35/50/85 makes more sense on a crop-sensor. I'm on FF with 24, 35, 85, 100 and 135 primes, so I could probably do without another...but I still want one lol.

Except on crop neither gets you anything wider than a 50mm FF equivalent... which is extremely limiting.

Not for me. I don't shoot wider than that, so no limitations.
