And all the techie stuff you folks are talking about? I don't have a clue what it did nor what it didn't or did do!!! Nor do I even this day know what the heck you are talking about?????????? :-) Remember it's me and KISS! :-) I bought it and couldn't believe the magical wide angle images I could shoot using it! I suppose you lads well educated in the technical aspects of photographic gear can see the "failings of this lens in whatever is the problem?" ME? Hell I just put that magnificent 15mm lens on the camera and shot magical moments while covering my assignments whatever they maybe. Nothing negative in thought at any time! My images just blew me away as well as my clients! I captured those beautiful wide angle views........ "THAT OTHER PEOPLE DIDN'T" WHY??? Heck I don't have a clue and if I should go back to LEICA SLR cameras it would be one of the first wide angle lenses I'd purchase! Or whatever they have to offer today providing I didn't have to sell my house to buy one! ;-) ;-) "REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU LADS MIGHT SAY!" Please don't take offense! I'm just a simple minded photojournalist who loves capturing moments of life wherever / whatever that maybe? Have a nice day.
