Originally posted by iheiramo I have also started to get different version of focal lengths as I got this stupid idea that it might be interesting to shoot all M primes in SIC first in APSC format and second time in FF. I'm about half way with my collection at the moment and haven't really decided if I include M400 and M20 in my notion of "all". M2000 and M35/1.4 are definately out of it.
M28/2.8 arrived today. Took a family shot with slower big brother, some test shots and put it on shelf to wait for it's turn in challenge.

Sorry for terrible mix of natural and lamp light in last shot. I just couldn't get colors right.
Thought faster the 2.8 is slightly smaller of the 2 M28's I have. Wide open sharpness surpriced me. I don't usually shoot any of my M's wide open as stopped down performance is usually so much better, but with this lens it might be usable. Thought I expect to find best sharpness around 5.6-8. Going price for these has been lower than 3.5 version and I have wondered the reason for it. Now I wonder even more. Very promising. Need to investigate more closely when I have time to spare. Just wanted to share my first thoughts.
