I don't know how it does w.r.t. resolution, contrast or flare. <<<<<<<<<< I've shot a roll with the new Tamron 14 mm f/2.8 lens. Not a scientific test by any means, but enough to get a feel for whether I'd like the lens as I'd use it. I was particuarly disappointed with the lens' resolution. I've not shot with any of the 15s, but the resolution from this Tamron was nowhere near what I'd expect from any of my Nikon lenses (ranging from 20 mm to 180). To say nothing of how it would compare with a Leica lens. Larry
