Alternative Classic

I've been looking for one of these babies for a long time and finally found it at a nice deal. The Olympus OM 21mm f/3.5 G.Zuiko is an economical compact ultra-wide angle lens. It is able to match and deliver uncompromising optical quality to rival some of the best (and more expensive) lenses in the industry. Optically, it consists of 7 elements in 7 groups and is able to deliver unusually high resolving power at the edges with excellent contrast at all apertures. It has a 92 degree angle of view that makes it very suitable for architectural and landscape applications. I adapted the lens to fit on the Canon 5D Mark III.
