Damn can't get rid of the zuikoholism.... I aquired 35 and 24mm shifts (the later taking forever to be cleaned by Luton cameras the former clean as a whistle) and 28 and 35mm F2s. my question is it worth buying the 21mm and 24mm F2s? when I already have the 24mm F2.8 and 21mm f3.5. The reson I ask is the the lens tests for the 28 and 35 F2s show siginificantly beter performance and good performance over a wider range than the cheaper zuikos and the 28mm F2 has a very good reputation (can't wait for it to arrive). However when you look at the performance figures for the 21mm and 24mm things are less clear. Has anyone made a comparison? The extra speed does not bother me. I take night photos and architecture and landscapes etc - things that don't require high shuter speeds when you have a good tripod... My only interest is clarity and contrast.
