Nikon D300s + Nikkor 28mm f/2 AI lens. On APS-C format the 28mm translates to a field of view full frame equivalent of 42mm. This is a useful compromise between 35mm and 50mm. Olympus made a 40mm lens, the Zuiko Auto-S 40mm f/2. Press photographers quite liked it for its versatility. There is also a Minolta 40mm ƒ/2 M-Rokkor. Yet on the whole, 40mm is a neglected focal length in prime lenses. I think Canon do one, but if I research it, I shall end up wanting it, and so I have no more to say on the matter. Except that as I have only an APS-C Canon, their 40mm lens would provide a field of view on my EOS 30D of 64mm. So no thanks.
