It's a shame they didn't release a 35 or 28mm instead of the Sonnar  
50. Most S body owners already have the very respectable 1.4 or 2.0  
Nikkor 50's. The wide angles are harder to find. My 1.4 50 is superb  
and I see no reason to buy a 1.5. But thanks for the link, Hoppy.  
It's very interesting.
