Well let's see?

Open a new package of razor blades and cut yer finger, just don't bleed on 
the lens! ;-)

The 15mm 3.5 puts' razor blades too shame! Particularly this one! It was my 
main tool on travel tourism assignments. If your competition doesn't have a 
same or similar lens you're going to blow them away everytime. Of course it 
you're competition is a Leica user? It becomes ability against ability. ;-)

Interiors when shooting for real-estate agencies??? Dynamite! WHY?

They want a million dollar look when selling mid-range priced houses.  This 
lens perspective does just that! HOWEVER?  When they're selling million 
dollar homes they want interiors to make it look like it's larger, bigger, 
more magnificent and beautiful all in one  frame indicating this little cup 
cake is worth ten times more than a million. Enter the 15mm lens!

The Leica f3.5 15mm lens whether shooting, kodachrome or attached to a 
digital body is an absolutely magical lens. And it's worth every penny, 
dollar! Whatever.
cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
