I decided on the non-asph because the incremental difference does not seem worth the extra weight, length, and price. I also really like the idea of the compactness of the M6+35 non-asph combo (i.e. fits in a jacket pocket). To quote the conclusion from Erwin's review: "The differences are visible, but you must compare the images side by side to see it." IMHO, that conclusion is not worth $700 extra.

I've had a 35 Non-asph and I replaced it for an Asph version . The Asph is not only a better performer, but it's also mecanically better : The Diaph ring is tighter than with the previous version . Considering image quality , the difference is obvious to me , even at the seeing of the slides with a good loop ( Pentax in my case ) . With the Asph I really dare to shoot at full aperture , the sharpness and rendition of details is very good . Quite a versatile lens . Regards Jo GOODTIMES France
