Those who said that in the face of a huge price increase it make sense to stick with what you've got answers in part the question behind my question concerning the new Tri-Elmar's marketability. I noted that the 1/3 price increase makes the Zeiss 15mm for about roughly 1/3 less a more appealing deal. Some of you said, keep with what you have. Use the 21 you've got. Good advice. I've been particularly interested in the new tri-elmar because I do a lot of wide angle photography. I rarely use anything longer than a 35. I shoot with panoramic cameras and wide angle Ms. The new tri-elmar has an appeal, but not with the new price jump. I'll stick with my 21 and maybe add the 15 Zeiss, maybe. I wouldn't think of buying the new tri-elmar becaue to afford it I'd have to sell my 21 and I'm not about to do that. Advantage Zeiss. Doug
