I am getting mine on monday. Can't wait to shoot with it. And I don't need a fast lens. My 50mm is "only" a f2. So I don't think I have problems with f2.8.

Why you lucky people!
This is a great little lens, if only I had the spare cash.

Love it on the M8. F2.8 is perfect for human subjects in close imo (f4 maybe even better).
I have never found this lens too slow although, I also never took it out in the evening
It shines brightest in Color images imo. These all are M8.

For a group of miscellaneous photos using this lens, try the RFF Gallery...
Go to the RFF Gallery... Drop down the Gallery Search menu and choose Advanced Search. In the window that appears, choose the 5th popup menu labeled “Select Lens Used” and pick from that menu the very last choice “ZM C-Biogon f2.8 35mm”. This will present you with about 120 photos using that lens.

It has been living on the M9 since reaching Scotland. Maybe it will bring out the colors from the overcast, leaden skies.
