While it is hard to be positively critical when viewing an image on the computer, it is clear by the enlargements that the Heliar is certainly a great value, and seems to me to be the equal of the Hologon in many ways. Indeed the light falloff seems BETTER in the Heliar. Add this to the price and the much more usable aperture range and I think the Heliar is a steal Best wishes Dan States >I've just posted a comparison of the Zeiss Hologon 16 and Voigtlander >Heliar Aspheric 15 lenses.
