I had a SA 3.4 for a few years. Certainly all Henning and the others have 
said but it is susceptible to flare wide open. Curiously, it's fine by f4. I 
sold mine and bought the 21 f2.8A as I shoot mostly wide open. Another great 
lens but with decidedly soft corners which become acceptable at, you guessed 
it, f4. So I traded for a 24 f2.8A and it's fine wide open with more than 
acceptable corners. I'd like to try a 21 Summilux but no one has offered to 
lend me their lens or front the purchase price.
