Advantages will be size (unless you plump for the DFA 50mm !!) and wider maximum aperture. The latter being not so useful for landscape.

I haven't tested it further but I think the focal length tracking, for want of a better phrase, only happens when you use Auto ISO at the same time as Av.

the hood has a 82mm thread which can take filters. The reviews are not exactly complimentary about the hood itself though !

Has anyone found a method of attaching filters to the front of an Tamron Adaptall 17mm f3.5.? I think the lens is model 51B.

1/3/4/5 are the stand outs for me.
A question now on IR. Never done it but what differentiates it from simply high contrast b+w ?

+1 agreeing with the backyard science comment above:
2 lenses (one reversed)
a flash
39 frames
3 slabs (whatever they are)
great work.

The 35mm will give a similar field of view, on APS-C, to the 50mm on film but if you want to have a short depth of focus the 50mm will still do a better job. Might just have to back up a bit to fit the subject in!
For the same aperture and framing the DOF of a 50 and 35mm lens will be the same
