John,
I can't comment on the Rolleina but the Zeiss offering is quite good
at 2.8although the outer 10-15% is somewhat soft.  But, then I still
have my SA
and it is pretty fine at F4 with a little intelligent sharpening: the tools
developed to sharpen digital images work very well with the slight softness
of the SA images.
