I got the FA28/2.8 from B&H last Friday, and I'm already in love!

For some reason I didn't use the M28/3.5 too much in the istD.
Probably a combination of the need to shoot in manual mode, the half
stop less aperture, and the longer focus throw (I like shorter, even
though I focus manually, because it's faster).

The FA28 feels great on the istD, and the perspective is perfect. I'd
almost venture to say I prefer ot over the FA35/2, which has been my
main lens for a long while. My impression is also that is is very
sharp (this subjective impression is all I need, btw.)

The last two pictures in my photoblog were shot with it:

Not getting rid of the FA35 anytime soon, but the FA28 will be on the
camera by default from now on.
