In practice, my 15 ltd went out of use after purchasing the converter, it is so worse that it’s just unpleasant to use it.

A well-loved lens doesn't turn into a turkey overnight just because a new option comes along. Besides, the images you posted on the 15mm ltd thread just recently don't look so bad.

1. everything is known in the comparison
2. comparison needs to be done in full size image. In the size of the forum everything looks beautiful even from smartphone

One advantage of the GR-III is that you can take images through security fencing with a 1" wide mesh without the blurring or whatever that might come with a wider lens.

I finally got the wide angle convertor, here are shots from my first outing. Likely it won't be my default GR setup, but it's certainly worth exploring

The GR III with the lens runs at $1250 with taxes....still pricey...

It can be useful indeed

The last one from that series I like the most - the white and blue both work great.

Thanks Chris. That's actually an occupied building in the last shot - a very quirky wall facing the street.
