Interestingly no one going for Lecia Steel Rim, or few for the LLL 11873, or a simple Summicron 35/2 ASPH. Or the discontinued V Ultron 35/2 (value winner, I would assume)


I'll "vote" for both, I have both, but then I am more of a 28/50/90(or 135) mostly 50 photographer, so for me 35 is my character FL, I dont have a more clinical 35. I will violate the one lens premise with the idea that I might and do carry a 50 apo summicron , and then a steel rim or LLL as my character lens for a two lens kit. I really like both, I might give the LLL a few extra points for render I like it is remarkable and steel rim also remarkable as the lens I want to carry. I do think for tourism and city carry a 50 apo and 35 steel rim has a lot of range to capture the scene without a weight penalty, if doing hybrid film and dig then each body has one lens and I switch lens back and forth. Even two bodies and two lens are small kit carry.
