Dick,

I have the old 19mm/2.8 and it is a wonderful lens. I am sure that the new one
is even better, but if you find the old version, it will serve you well.
Sometime tonight I hope to post my pictures for Week 29, and there will be
some 19mm pictures in the set (landscape photos in the Swiss Alps).
