Before flying with the JU52 I bought this lens for cabin shots. Only grumpy old men inside, so outside it was much better (with the 21mm F4)....... ;-)

The lens was the Best Buy for my Bessa R4A!

Lovely photo!
I found that the frame in my viewfinder was not level with the camera. I was able to unscrew the viewfinder housing and rotate that glass element (with the frames etched) in the housing to bring it back to the correct alignment. A very fine cross-head screwdriver is needed. That has improved my vertical lines!

these are very inspiring! i have recently been shooting, and very much enjoying, cv skopar 25/4 and i'm wondering if this 21 can coexist with the 25, in other words, will it provide a significant enough difference in perspective that one would enjoy both in their bag?

I find the two focal lengths pretty different. I have a 21/4 skopar but over time I found I was consistently cropping my shots on the long edge back to about the 24/25mm width. So, I picked up a 24mm Elmarit and ... well, I haven't used the 21 once since (I should put it up for sale). I simply don't "see" in 21mm well I guess. Of course, you may be completely different and able to use both to good advantage (you will likely have to try it out), but the two are fairly distinct at least to me.
