BRAVO! for you. But, the truly baffling statements (by Leica owners, of
all people) was that instead of a wide-angle lens just move back, and 
instead of a tele move closer. The real virtue of the wide angle is not
more in the picture but the perspective it brings to a picture. There 
is a "sweep" that a 20mm will give you that is a whole lot more than
"backing up"...........................
