I actually have the M28/3.5, which is great, but frankly, I wanted an A lens. I had no problem shooting in manual mode with the M6 and the MX, but with those cameras changing the exposure is much faster, plus I was shooting tri-X, which is very benevolent if you tend to err on the overexposure side. With the istD, it is a bit like shooting slide film, and the hyper mode is the way to go imho.
I would have gotten an A28 if I'd found one... j On Thu, 11 Aug 2005 13:15:29 US/Eastern, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Good to hear Juan. > > I use the A28 on my istD and think its a great FL. > > Dave > > > I gave in last night, and ordered a > brand new > FA28/2.8 from B&H. > > Should be here tomorrow. > > > > I love the FA35, but it is sometimes too narrow on the istD as a > > normal.
