	--> Photo-Selection magazine rated the Canon TSE-24
	as "totally outstanding". It's a "manual" lens but probably
	would it meet your standards at a quite decent price,
	relative to a PC-28 Super Angulon.
	Their comments made it quite plain that the editorial staff
	was awed by it.
	Generally, that magazine is truly excellent and quite
	a source of inspiration.
