Now that I have the 9-18

A different one than I was mentioning. Chris T. is living in the world of three digit 4/3 cameras, which need different lenses.

I'm certainly using it but not a great deal.

I don't use mine all that often. But that's been true of the 17-35 on 5D and 10-22 on 60D, as well. I'm not deep down a SWA guy, but there are some thing I want to shoot that require one. I'm mostly talking about close quarters. Sweeping landscapes are better with shorter FLs and stitching.

Mostly, I was kvetching about Chris' use of the term Wide Angle to refer to lenses that aren't that on his cameras (or mine).

The 12-50 is what's usually on the camera or the 14-150 if I don't know what 
I'm likely to be facing.

I may not be an SWA guy, but I have become attached to the 24 mm eq. of the 12-50 and it's macro capability. Much as I like the 14-150 in some ways, I wish it's new version were 12-130, with some sort of useful close focus.
