Yes TriFox, CV's Super Wide Heliar is close to it and a bit faster.
Of course Hologon is a bit better and less distortion as expected.
I am thinking to convert Hologon to M-mount, which is doable by yourself.
But,,,,

#4 ruined for me because of the workmanship of the edging stone as it wasn't cut for the bend (well family in the trade) otherwise nice shots.

All nice pictures and lenses but the last one holds special for me. Snow that looks like snow (thanks to micro contrast) and not like fluid blue gel (like it often happens with the lenses that have "smooth bokeh"). The perfect reproduction and separation of tones and handling of the contrast speak of a great lens. Which is the Contax Tessar.

Yes Orio, that is real snow. It snows in Toronto even in April sometime.
C/Y's Tessar 45 mm is surprisingly good, though I have not used much.

My garden was designed and made by us, and maintained by us.
Wife maintained plant flowers, me did tree and shrubs.
Lawn was cut by a german fellow (I had back pain long time), who was
an ex-SS and caught by Russian army and set to Siberia for 3 years. 
It looked like this>

Koji, I had a hunch it was you and perhaps the wife. A hobby of mine
was bonsai long before my first tour in Japan, but was lucky to study and
take lessons from a master in Iwakuni.
Beautiful garden! |

Thank you Bill, my father-in-law maintained 200 Bonsais. But after he went
to old-age-home no one to do it, so he gave away the best bunch to his
friends but the rest was rotten. 
I still love tree flowers such as sakura, apple, etc.
