I doubt you could go wrong with either, if you saw either at a good price, take one.

If you saw any of the other options, Fujinon 19mm, Flektogon 20mm, Nikkor 20mm, Olympus 18mm etc, and the price was okay and the condition good, take it, I am sure they would all do what you need.
The Tamron and Tokina 17mms are likely to be the best price/value though.

Here I am again:
I have found a 60 euros who Zenitar 16mm 2.8 m42 mount.
The seller states the lens loses infinity focus adapted on eos cameras.
Is it? Would I lose infinity on my 5Dmk2? |

As far as I know (and experienced) Infinity focus on zenitars is really uncertain, but easy to adjust. If it's in good condition the price is a bargain. I like that lens really much. It's a fisheye, though

Hi everybody,

That was your first post.
29 posts later you will buy a fish eye. Do you really know what you want ? I´m not sure. Best would be you buy a modern AF lens for your cam and then you will be sure to own a good lens.

No, I didn't count them, you will see the number of posts on the index page. And if you would try the search function, you will find a similar topic approx. ever 2 weeks with the same content. And at least, I'm pretty sure that you have enough experience to find your own decision. Am I wrong ?
