The 28 is really close to the 35 in viewing angle.  I doubt that other than
the really tight conditions that the step backwards would not make up for
the difference in FL.

If you feel that the difference is worthwhile, and can actually see the 28
Framelines, then the 28/2 is the only happy solution to lower light levels.
If you are shooting in bright daylight all the time, the 28 Elmarit is
$500-800 less costly.
