If size and weight are important, look for the 35-70/3.5-4.5.

If you really want to buy new, and can't afford the 35-80, your only choice 
is the Cosina made 35-70/3.5-4.8

Short of the 35-80, the best from the standpoint of image quality is 
reputedly the 35-70/3.6

There is also the 35-70/4, which you can sometimes find cheap. I think it is 
a good lens, and somewhat underrated. Or maybe it is just overshadowed by the 
35-70/3.6.
