When you mention architecture, what do you mean?
Interiors, or shooting a 15 story building from across the street will require a very wide lens. Shooting a barn, suburban house or bridge will likely not require something so wide. Also landscapes that are more intimate ( a tree, creek, or boulder say) will "pop" when shot close up with a wide lens while a "grand vista' will often only look far off and distant unless a longer lens is employed. My advise is to pick one lens and stick with it for awhile. Some older Symmars were double convertibles which will give you twice as much bang (two focal lengths instead of just one) for the buck.
One valid method of choosing a lens is to find a photographer whose work you admire and find out which lens that photographer uses (most lf 'togs will freely offer such info)
