little flare. I should think that you would be able to find it for a bit less
than the other lenses on you list.

for some time now i have been looking for an ultrawide lens (18mm and wider). i seem to somewhat narrowed my list of choices:pentax 15mm/3.5 voigtlander 15mm or 12mm pentax fisheye 17mm/4 pentax fisheye 16mm/2.8 does anyone here have experience with these? the review on luminous landscape gives voigtlander 12mm quite a bit of praise, but i am curious, how they compare to pentax 15mm (the designs are obviously very different). pls, no usual "go try them both and see for yourself" :) also, i have been enjoying zenitar 16mm full frame fisheye for quite some time now, and with a little help of photoshop, it too is capable to give some pretty wide images with very little distortion. has anyone here tried to compare quality-wise remapped fisheye images with true wide-angle shots at, say, 15mm? -- all my film ends up scanned anyway. and, finally, did anyone tried both, zenitar and pentax fisheyes side by side? does pentax worth the premium? and, quality-wise, which pentax one is better, 17mm or 16mm? ufff... now back to scanning. best, mishka
