JCO, Did you win the hard-to-find SMC 67mm metal screw-in hood you were bidding on for it? The Vivitar 35/1.9 (58mm filter) is also said to be excellent, almost on a par with the Series 1 28/1.9. I've seen only one in K mount but it's easier to find in screwmount. Soligor made a 35/2 (58mm) in its pro-line CD series, but I don't know how it rated. Best of the bunch may be the Carl Zeiss Jena 35/2.4. All three use the auto setting. I have photos if anyone is interested.
