The 15 VC is also a good superwide, but you are likely to see very dark blue skies in the upper corners. Unlike the 21, the 15 and the 25 are scale focus only.

Having 'liquidated' my Lecia collection some years ago (to fund my childrens' trip through private high school), I am left with only my trusty M2 and a couple of lenses... 50mm 2.8 Elmar (old version) and the obligatory 35mm Summicron. Having been very fond of my 21mm 2.8 Super Angular, I am interested in diving back into the 'super wide' arena but simply cannot justify the outlay for a replacement for my now-on-somebody-else's-camera SA. I have been thinking of the VC 21mm, as it seems to be an acceptable substitute. So, I was wondering if any (or many) on this list were regular VC users - 21mm or otherwise - and what your words of wisdom might be in the regards these lenses. Thank you very much for your time and kind consideration. Rob Pritchett _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
