Dan - I asked this ? awhile back- I used this lens after having it sit 
around for awhile.  I am thinking of using it on a Bessa-r ( when and if it
gets to the US).  I shot mostly at 3.5 and 4 and the shots were not bad
considering the age of the lens.  I am of course aware that there are
"better" optics available and I'm sure the hexar and cosina 35's are a
tremendous advance.  nonetheless it's hard to imagine a smaller 35.  My only
ergonomic problem is that you have to set the f/stop first then focus.

anyway my $0.02
