I thought more megapixels are better????? Does film even have megapixels? And how can you take a good picture if you can't see it on the screen right away?<br /><br />Hahaha.

The 35mm f/1.4 is a manual focus (no "D"-istance information is sent to the camera). Looking forward to your comparisons!<br /><br />P.S. I love the FE2, it's built like a tank and the build quality is unparalleled.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102207203432835637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1863557395902759193.post-54274276279540436932009-05-06T15:08:00.000-07:002009-05-06T15:08:00.000-07:00Wow! I'm hit! I'm hit! Taking me down wit all that...Wow! I'm hit! I'm hit! Taking me down wit all that technical jargon. These comparisons aren't that scientific. I just had the shots and threw the post together. But here we go.<br /><br />Actually I wasn't shooting the 35mm f/2.0D. It was the inferior 35mm f/1.4D. Inferior in sharpness, but that bokeh! And I'm not sure that the different lenses would do much to the color. I've shot both on my D300 and haven't noticed a difference. The 17-45 seems better with color and contrast actually. And no filters on the lenses. Just raw glass! I shot both cameras on manual and the D300 I shot in Raw and processed in capture one to adjust temperature and exposure. Also added a little contrast to the curves. But that's it. No other post production on either the film or the digital.<br /><br />I plan on doing a more scientific study of film against digital soon. Working on it now actually. Pairing my trusty $300 Fuji GS645S against my D300. Stay tuned!Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00041280636201508991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1863557395902759193.post-84224549853066379122009-05-06T14:06:00.000-07:002009-05-06T14:06:00.000-07:00Completely agree on the highlight clipping problem...Completely agree on the highlight clipping problem on digitals. Thanks for taking the time to post your comparisons.<br /><br />It'd be great if you have examples of switching lenses (or use the same lens). The 35mm f/2.0D is 6 elements in 5 groups, whereas the more complex (and expensive) 17-35mm f/2.8D is a 13 element in 10 groups. That's nearly doubling the light path, and I suspect the added glass can degrade color as well, regardless of its slightly better MTF data (at 35mm) when compared to the 35mm f/2.0 lens.<br /><br />Also, just out of curiosity, can you tell us what filters you have on the 17-35mm (paired with the D300) and the 35mm (paired with the FE2)? Also, what setting are you on with the D300 (Active D-Lighting [under-expose], Picture Mode)?<br /><br />Thanks, looking forward to seeing more posts from you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102207203432835637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1863557395902759193.post-69445755611992401302009-05-05T12:59:00.000-07:002009-05-05T12:59:00.000-07:00@ Anonymous - Blue Lily...
