In the areas of resolution, contrast and flare, the Heliar >is definitely better. I would also classify the Heliar as 'better'. I may be needing a really wide lens for an upcoming project. Are there any pictures on the web from a 15mm Cosina that I can look at. I would buy a 21 Elmarit or Zeiss Hologon if I could afford one (we will see). This Cosina wide angle would be used to photograph a large building project over the course of the next year and might called upon for some big (20X30) enlargements. I have a 28 Elmarit, but don't think it will be wide enough. By the way, between the 21mm's, does the Elmarit have more distortion than the Super Angulon? Thanks for any info, Newp - -------- R.
