My personaly main objection against the 35/35 is its relatively long 
lens, 35mm (unless you use the full 35mm height of a non-perforated 
film). Even the medium format version does better, with 65mm (same 
lens on the 5" film version btw, which makes it even more wideangle, 
but without the shift-feature of the 120/70mm model of course).
