Walt, here is a bit of anecdotal evidence to you. One of the guys in the local camera club has exactly this combo - Bessa camera (one without built-in viewfinder) and 15/4.5 lens. The lens is tiny, the outcome is tremendous. It is very well corrected (very rectilinear) and it is very sharp. Lovely piece of gear if you ask me.
