Great pictures! I haven't used a 28 1.4D, but I own and love the 28 1.4E. How come you went for the D instead of the newer E version?
Thanks! For one, I got the 28mm D for about $1000 cheaper. Secondly, I actually prefer the overall rendering of the D over the newer E mode in certain situations. The D has a more nervous bokeh, almost like a bubble bokeh, that I really like. In some situations, with architecture and straight lines it draws out the background in a very cool painted look. At other times, the bokeh on the D can look downright awful and that is where I think the E does a better job all around with greater sharpness & a bit smoother bokeh.
In certain situations, the 28D can really shine though and I'm still learning the limits of the lens. Who knows, I might end up with the 28E at some point.
