Through a convoluted set of circumstances, I've ended up with two (in both
cases the price was too good to pass up).  One is at DAG getting refurbished
& updated to 3-cam, the other is now my 'working' 35.  I have a little
experience with it.  It seems like a decent enough lens, nothing really
spectacular.  Watch for flare spots when the sun is in the picture area.  I
like the small size; there's hardly any excuse to leave it behind.  "Small"
in this context is w.r.t. other SLR lenses ;-)
