I like having the 28m and the 21mm, both are useful additions to have when
the 35mm won't do.  Really like both but if I had to give up one it would be
the 28mm, when you need a super-wide the 21mm is one terrific lens.  Had it
3 years and I'm still getting the hang of it though.  When my wife and I
were at Grand Canyon and Arches Nat'l Monuments we both were impatient to
get the 21mm lens from one another.  Super quality for the angle of view -
everything an M lens and an M6 should be.

Hello dear friends

I have an M6 with 35, 50, 90 and 135mm lenses. Now I feel the need for a
real wide angle lens. I was thinking of the 15mm Voigtlaender Heliar. Is
the jump to big, are there alternatives, what do you suggest?
