hmm.. The Canon 35mm f1.4 has a 72mm filter thread. The Sony 35mm f1.4 has a 55mm thread!

And the manual Nikkor 35/1.4 came with a 52mm thread.
A 40 year old lens design that don't have to hide from the new 35G, by the way... Surpassed, yes. But not outclassed by any means.
More like the new AF-S 50/1.4G surpassing the AF 50/1.4D: Quite visible in the f/1.4 to f/2.2 range, but from there on not mutch to write about...
Anw while I'm comparing: As mutch as I love my 85G, if someone own's a AF 85/1.4D already, optically it would be very hard to justify a switch, if one is using it in the real world and not to examine brick wall shot's at 100% in the corner's at f/1.4... <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' />
