    IMHO - Migrate safely.... The 19 R is THE best ultra wide for 35mm SLR I
have ever used. I happen to also use the 15 SA Elmarit 2.8 (Schneider
designed) and THAT is one incredible wide as well!
    In both , flair and distortion is kept very much to a minimum, and I
find a great 3D quality to these lenses.
