The film was the 5 mgp sensor in the Olympus E-1. I had the lens set at 2.8.
And thanks.
Oddly enough, I was never much a fan of the 28 until about 6-8 years ago
when I got the Nikon 28 1.4 to use on the F100. From there I went to the
Summicron 28, and now I use the focal length allot of the time. It's wide
enough to give you distortion if you want it, but close enough to normal to
be able to avoid the wide distortion if you don't want it. It also give you
the ability to get in close and tight, but still include some detail
surrounding the subject - more than you can with the 35, which I really
think of as 'normal.'
