Oh come on it can't be THAT bad. If the manual
stopping down is too much just leave the button
depressed and the apeture changes with the f-stop.
There is some loss of light, but not unbearable
amounts. The 35 shift is somewhat heavier and larger,
but not masiively so 180 vs 310 grams, less than a
35-70 3.6 zoom. I do agree with the other Mark though
on the 24mm, I have one and its not designed for
"normal" use.
