Hi Helen, I've got this 21mm F4 lens too on a barnack, wondering if you are using a hood of some kind which might be causing the vignetting here?

haha on Me...Yes You are spot on correct
it was the teeny tiny 50 Elmar M hood, the only E39 hood I own, thought I would try it...
The results made me giggle the way it created the 'vignetting' . Sometimes mistakes can be Fun ~

I still have the tres sexy square hood from the 21 3.4 SA but that is a different size, bigger hood.

OK, yeah, I was wondering, thanks. Now I know what to expect if I try that out, have that hood on my 50mm f2.8 ltm. I do have an appropriate IWKOO hood for my SA but i'm not really convinced that it helps that much to be honest. So, I never use it.

Looks a little like the pivotal rooftop scene in Blade Runner, where Rutger Hauer spares Harrison Ford (in a painful way) to remind him to appreciate life, pain and pleasure alike.

oh, cool... Have not seen the cult classic 'Blade Runner'
Suppose now it's a good reason to give it a go
Thank You James ~
 
Here are a few pictures from the Madison in Peoria Illinois, an abandoned local theater I got to photograph before restoration starts. It's been around since the Vaudeville days and is the last classic theater in town of many that have been razed over the past century.

Portra 400, 21/3.4 Super-Angulon-M

I like the images my copy produces but I'm torn over getting the haze that compromises a lot of pictures I take with it cleaned or just selling it and getting the more reliable, new Voigtlander 21/3.5 instead.
