Luis,

Perfect. I like the look. I think this was what you were looking  
for.  I think you need a lens hood for #4. I found this lens flares  
easily as well so care must be taken. I found the rigid to be better  
below f8. Edwin says the design is different between the two and the  
rigid is improved. I think your collapsible looks better then mine.  
Mine is a little hazy and very soft up to f5.6.

Saludos,
Len
