This can happen even with a 28, too, for instance if you have a human face in the picture's edge. >I'd say I use it most out of my lenses - certainly makes my 28mm redundant. Not for me! The 28 is a tele compared to the superwide Heliar. 15 is my wide, 28 my standard, 75 my tele lens :-) >I got mine on e*ay for ?232 >Laurence John ?232 ? Thats approx $433 - at cameraquest.com from LUGger Stephen Gandy you get a new one, with finder, with factory warranty, for $345! I'm astonished how often people buy used stuff at the auction site for more than the same new object would cost somewhere else. But nevertheless, have fun with your lens! Think about tilted horizont lines, and about overexposed pictureas when you have a lot of bright sky in the frame (turn the camera to the ground when you meter). And take your cap and your shoetips out of the frame! ;-) Didier
