I'd fling the 56 off with zero hesitation.    I owned it.  Wound up returning it.  Maybe I had a bad copy, but waaaaay too much hunting in rather good light.  Afraid to try it in lower light.

 

The 18-55, is my "don't leave home without it lens".  

The 16mm is my other "don't leave home without it lens"

The 35 F2 I do not own, but I do own the 35 1.4 and the only way I will let that go is if St Peter refuses to let me in the gates of Heaven without it.

The 55-200 is my go-to long lens. ULTRA sharp, and oh so much nicer, lighter than the 50-140, not as fast, but longer reach.  Would never get rid of it.

The 10-24 F4?  Have looked at it and it's too heavy and bulky (for my taste).  I have the Zeiss 12, 2.8, 16 1.4, 23 1.4 which fills the gaps nicely.

 

So, I guess if I had to choose, I would still go with the 56, in my left hand, and the 10-24 in my right (oh, BTW:  I'm a LEFTY).  

Good Luck on your decision.

said deva who just purchased the 16-55 and shot many hundreds of images with it and very happy he purchased it, but also wish it had OIS (18-55 has OIS)... ;)

Well... he set up a terrible situation... I just wouldn't get rid of any of them... heh

Ended up getting rid of two zooms.... the 10-24 and 18-55. First I soaked em in my bath tub to make sure they were clean, then I baseball batted the 10-24 through my neighbors front window (F**king line drive!) and the 18-55 went off the roof and landed right on my wife's car!  :D

    • The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods. These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut. Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut. If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!
