Hi Heiko, I bought an FA 35/2 with my ZX-5n and I don't think I could have chosen better. Definitely my number one all around lens--good color, blur, sharp and just the most natural field of view. I've since acquired an A 50/1.7, and while it is a nice lens, too--the 50mm focal length isn't quite long enough and not quite wide enough to make a good fit for me (works great on the bellows, though).
