I haven't looked into the 400 DO. But to my eye, there is a lack of pop with the 35L II compared to the 35L original, especially when stopped down. When both are wide open however, it is much easier to notice the 35L II's superior resolution and global contrast when compared to the coma of the 35L original at wide apertures. So i think if i was only using a lens wide open, i would consider the 35L II more. but for my use case, i visually prefer the 35L original.
