Thanks! I think that I will probably get the 21 sometime soon

Thanks and there are very few differences between the 15 and 21. They both exhibit great flare control, they both render the exact same amazing 14 pointed stars, both are super sharp, both have excellent contrast, both same dimensions, price,etc. da 21 has a slight bit if barrel distortion but it is not a big deal. That said, the 15 is apparently more well known which is why there is more discussion about it online. It does not mean the da21 is any less amazing but it is lesser known.
I really like the focal length of the 21 and am tending to use it more than the 15 now.
Both are winners, so you won't go wrong here.

Hi Mike,

I have been appreciating your pictures and comments on the various threads since joining PF
about a year ago. I was hoping you could elaborate on something you posted recently to a discussion of the merits of the 15mm ltd.

Specifically - what is it that you prefer about the 21mm ltd compared to the 15mm? I am trying to decide between the two, and I think that the 21 fov fits my needs better. The only thing holding me back is the constant and consistent raves about the 15.

Thanks,

Yonatan (yorik)
