It is after all 1.5 stops faster than the m28/3.5 so at least in that area you've gotten an improvement.

Has anyone used the Kiron 28mm f2? I was just at the B&H site getting an extra CF card (1GB, should be enough with the 2GB I have and the CompactDrive pd7x.)
They had one of these in their used department for $80, which I ordered, after a brief googling of the lens seemed to indicate that it is at least passable.
Anyone knows how it compares with the M28/3.5? I plan to use it on the istD, and/or give it to Rolling Red to use with her istDs.
Thanks,
