No debate:
The FA35/2 AL is a superb lens, a perfect match for a normal with the
DSLRs, and nearly as good as the FA31 Limited for one-third the
price. It's also half the size/weight of the 31Ltd.
The DA40/2.8 is a novelty item ... a very nice lens too, but not as
useful/flexible/excellent as the FA35.
I'd sell the older lenses and buy an FA35/2. It's a better lens in my
opinion.

I want to get a compact, "Normal" lens for the D.
I'd like the 40/2.8 AND the 35/2 but can afford only one for
my 'Christmas present to me'.
What say ye, oh wise (and better photographers than me)
PDML'ers?
