Back when lenses were full metal/brass! The 35/2.8 is a very overlooked lens. Prices tend to very cheap compared to the 35/f2. An 8 element 35/f2 can go for $800, where the 2.8 will be under $400. The 2.8 is just as sharp. Of course, now all Luggers are looking for the 2.8, so the prices will now skyrocket. The ASPH's are gonna be pissed. Chris - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Greg J.
