I like what I've been getting with a 25 but figured to make it a
little moreso.  So when I went to a recent swapmeet I was really
looking for a # 70.  All I found was a single #29, the right size for
my 28mm, so I bought it.  It is visibly less orange than the 25.  The
results are now in the tank, waiting for a second roll of HIE for
developing.  I don't really expect to see a significant difference,
but I was hoping... And it is nice not to have to use a step-up ring
with the 28mm.
