Sorry, mate, for some peculiar reason I can't read that last sentence. > Really odd. I don't remember liking 28mm much in film or > Pentax DSLRs but on a digital rangefinder, I find it just > about the sweet spot for a candid lens. > I like 28mm on 35mm (if you get my drift) and use it a lot. For the M8 I have a 21mm Leica lens, which has the same aov as 28 on 135. Problem with it is that there are no framelines for it, and I can't see the outer edges of the viewfinder, so I'll also need a separate 28mm viewfinder. Bloody expensive hobby this. My 35/1.4 has the aov of a 48mm lens on 135, so the 28/2 Ultron would give me the equivalent of a 35/2 - which I also like a lot.
