I never used the 35 summicron but I'll vouch for the 35/2 FD, which is a spectacularly good lens. Almost as good as the 35/1.4 lux asph... ok, not really, but considering I bought my FD used for about ONE TENTH of the price of my lux... hmmm. And it really is a sharp, smooth lens... even wide open close up, where it beats the leica hands down for framing accuracy and close-focusing. Glad my T90 sale on ebay fell through. - -- Johnny Deadman photos: http://www.pinkheadedbug.com music: http://www.jukebox.demon.co.uk
