Dan,
As Alastair mentioned: >>> 15 super elmar ;-)<<<<<

If you can afford it, go 15 right off and get the decision questioning out
of your mind and life as a wide shooter will be more than satisfying. ;-)

I've used a 15 for years, I think since sometime mid '80s, same lens I use
today and it's a beauty and I long for nor yearn after any other wide.

You'll not be disappointed for a moment and will find a whole new meaning to
wide angle super lens picture taking. :-)
