No Mark, you MUST buy a Colander (Voigtsina?) 15mm. It's like a law or 
something. Every M shooter must own one . . . Seriously, the 15mm makes a 
nice addition to the 24mm. If nothing else, it's perfect for those photos of 
someone driving his car -- the ideal focal length for shooting from the 
passenger seat to the driver's seat. Great for balloon baskets pics, too . .
