Thanks Don. I think that this compact series is a very welcome addition to 
the M mount options. This end of the wide angles too, may
become more important with the debut of the M8. 
Cheers

Hoppy,
Yes, it is quite compact as 21's go and close up was very sharp till about
2/3 out.  I can not say about the outer zones as I only took about four
frames with a pre-production model.
