All things considered the 35/1.4 ASPH is the finest lens ever made, in my book. I bought one when it first came out. A major investment it was, though for some reason not as gut wrenching as buying anything digital. Perhaps because lenses (outside of Canon FD) are forever! The older 35/1.4 non-asph had such a cult following there was a lot of love/hate discussion regarding the ASPH -- right down to the concave front element. It's a classic. A must have lens! :-) DaveR
