I wouldn't rid myself of a good lens just to get the HD nor would I pass up a good used lens. The article you may have read and I read was here

worth reading by any member concerned about the difference. As steve harley wrote, there are some trade offs.

Now I want to see the HD stuff vs the regular smc lens, use what I
have and
update my lens kit.

i have the SMC D FA 35/2.8; i recall seeing a review which specifically
compared the SMC and HD versions of this lens, and found pretty minor

that if you do night shots and like the star effect on streetlights,
etc., you might prefer the SMC
