sounds to me, my friend, like you have enough 35's already.
though, i'll say i've had no problems w/ my voigtlander 35, though i
smacked it into a big pipe in a sewer in bucharest and the front part of
the lens acquired a lose "wobble" which cost me $65 to have fixed. other
than that -- it's faster than your summicron, but not by much.
