Acknowledging that there are relatively few "Street Photographers" on this site, I still think this short article has much merit for us "rookies". I'm posting it in the "Main Photography" section, in hopes that it'll get more exposure (fully aware that it might get moved to Links, or one of the "Street" categories).
For street portraiture, I would agree with you. However, it is my opinion that street photography benefits greatly from a sense of environment. Ergo, I believe something wider is preferable. However, I am less inclined to limit my choice of lenses by genre. For example: one can shoot landscapes with medium telephotos and closeups with an extreme wide angle.
