Hi Charles and Pasvorn,
I'm more impressed by the 16-50 than the Zenitar image! Thanks. This
shows all I needed to know. I think I'll get a Zanitar from Russia. It's
within my budget. The dealer who sells them has a decent reputation and
it should only take a day or two to get here. But he's not in the EU, so
I may have customs trouble. I'll check before I order it.

Hi Don,
It is not full fish-eye, but it still heavily distorted, especially if
you have horizontal lines run across the frame.
If you go to www.pbase.com, you can search for examples.
I have here three quick shots which I did from a tripod with:
1. Kit Lens (@18mm)
2. Da 16-50 @16mm
3. Zenitar
You can see the relative fields of view as well as distortions fairly
simply.
