The Heliar isn't that big an outlay, so if you decide it's not doing what you expected, you can resell it and have lost very little. That said, I think the 15 is more of a novelty lens than a genuine day-to-day user (personal opinion only, others will disagree, YMMV, yada yada). If I was looking for a really usable superwide I'd think of a 21 before the 15. Have you used other superwides in the past? I owned a Nikkor 20 for two years, and took a grand total of 36 frames with it...

Now I feel the need for a real wide angle lens. I was thinking of the 15mm Voigtlaender Heliar. Is the jump to big, are there alternatives, what do you suggest? Duri
