[Leica] 21 mm lens for M9

[zoeica at mac.com (Chris Williams)]

Yes the 21/2.8 Zeiss for Leica. I think it was PDN or another magazine  
that rated that lens(they were testing the Nikon mount version) as one  
of the best wide angle lenses they've ever used.

First shot with it on the M8 and then later with the M9. Very little  
if any CA when editing in LR, which is a plus for me because so many  
Nikkor and Canon lenses show CA when imported into LR. I first used it  
on a bridal session in NOLA and I was hooked.

Philip Forrest is using his on the M9 now I believe, maybe he'll chime  
in as well.
