Although it's not fast, the K28/3.5 is very good. Extremely sharp throughout
the range. The Vivitar Series 1 28/1.9 is a real prize, although hard to
find.

I was looking at that when I got the f/2 Vivitar. I found
conflicting reviews on it... particularly distortion. I read that the
Kiron-made f/2 was a sleeper. I guess it is... just disappointing wide
open.
I've heard the [K|M]28/3.5 is sharper than the 2.8? I really wish
the 50/1.4 could be fully utilized on the APS-sized sensor. Great lens,
but just too long for lots of my shots.
