rokinon 16/2 lens

big difference between a 21 and a 24...to my eyes anyway.

Yes a difference but not that big, if you had one you would not need the other.
The 14mm is a better lens. Why fool around when you can simply step in most of the time?
I'm clearly not a fan of incremental measurbating.
I like 25mm as well but would always choose 21 on my way out the door.
If I showed an image taken with a 16mm and then stepped in (or cropped) with a 14mm it would be difficult to know which is which most of the time.
Objects close to the lens with either FL will be distorted.

no argument here...

but, if i had to choose between a 21 or a 24 i would take the 24...nice & wide and easier to tame than a 21...more useful more often i think.
i like a 21 too though...
 
16mm is one long step in from 14mm :p
Zeiss 12mm, Fuji 14mm, now this 16mm seriously…. use your feet not your millimeters :D

Lol Andy.

But in a more serious note.. Not if u backed into a wall and can't get the shot :(.. But to have 12-14-16 is a hit much, I agree. If I needed all three, I would wait for that wide zoom of theirs. Isn't going to be a 10-20?

16mm would be better for me, but between these two lenses, I would pick the Fuji. That said, I won't be getting either.
