Next month I'm buying either this lens or the DA 35mm 2.4 AL, and I'd like to hear from people who's used both of them. Wich one you think I should buy?
I like the size and sharpnes of this one, but I also like the focal lenght and speed of the 35mm.
I don't know if this is important, but I shoot digital with a K100D, and I'm upgrading to a K7.
On a related note, I've always shot film with a K1000, but I'll have to change that body too, since neither of the two lenses have an aperture ring, any advise?
I'm also posting this on the DA 35 2.4 AL review.
Thank you all for the help!
Regards,
Viernes

I like the focal lenght of this one, but from what I've read the 40mm seems to be sharper.

I just bought this lens, and I'm very very pleased with it.
I used it on a Spotmatic and a Canon XSi and the results on digital where fairly impressive. I took a few shots using film, I'll take them to my dark room to see how the lens behaves using 35mm.
I always use FP4 (ISO 125) and HP5 (ISO 400) and small apertures, I'll post a few of those when they're done.
So far, what I like the most about this lens is the physical side. It's made entirely of metal, it's heavy but still has just the right balance that makes it perfect to carry around all day while is still heavy enough to help you take a steady shot.
It's very responsive and sharp, but not THAT sharp, mi Canon 50 1,8 II is a little better in that departament.
