Dieter, I am more of a snapshot kind of guy, and in order to properly use a 14mm lens, you really have to level it properly (tripod, spirit level, etc). And because of the dramatic aangle of view, it's more prone to flare than a less severe lens. For these reasons I'm probably just not a "14mm kind of guy"!
