Subject: Re: [Leica] Wide angle lens

I use the Heliar on my IIIc/f (convert) and really like it. I don't use it
often cause its a gimmic lens. I also have the 21 and use that quite
frequently. If its a toss up, get the 15, its cheap.. if you don't like
it, sell it, get the 21. :)

Hello dear friends

I have an M6 with 35, 50, 90 and 135mm lenses. 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?
