David, I do the same thing all the time, with my 35/1.4 asph on a Hexar RF and my 75/1.4 on my .72x M6 TTL. And I generally prefer the 75 images to the 35--they have a very different look, one that is easily noticeable when both are shot at f2 or 1.4. And yes, I think it has a great deal to do with the bokeh. Dan
