The 3E is a fantastic lens . Owning several prime lenses , I decided to take the 3E on its own to a trip to Labrador last summer . It is actually very conforable to walk around with only 1 camera / 1 lens . The results were very , very good . Concerning the shade , I bought it before the trip because I found that the front element was in danger on the 28 position . With the shade , you always avoid fingerprints , chocs on the front element , and , of course , flaring . Go for it .
