My bet is wide, but not that wide :-)

There was a survey by Cooke Optics on the f32.net Discussion Forum a while 
back and many people asked for a new version of the wonderful Series VIIB 
wide angle. This little lens was made for a wide range of formats and has 
around 100 degrees coverage. Pop over to the following URL for a shot taken 
with the 82mm version and a photo of the lens:
