Or do you know if one of his other lenses was the 50/1.4? I'm considering the Canon 35s as well. The 35/2 is the famous one, and the 35/1.8 is thought unsharp by Deschert (sp?), but I'm wondering if anyone has compared them in terms of signature. If I could find a 35 with the same attributes as the 50/1.4 -- or the DR Summicron -- I'd be a happy guy. (I'm sure the 35mm pre-Aspherical Summicron would do the trick, but can't afford one at the moment.) cheers, DC
