Among the ones I know, the Voigtlander 125 is the best.

According to a friend that I would qualify as reliable, don't expect a new DSLR.

Have you considered the Sigma 8-16?

And what about the lens? Well the results are pleasantly sharp,doesn't too sharp at focus close to infinty though. Colors are nice. AF is not the fastest in the world but fast enough.
At f4 it seems a bit soft and have some CA. I haven't done any pictures to test the resistance to flare but I think wide it might not be the best thing.
More to come later!

I was more thinking about the "ghosting and flare" issues (to use the lenstip words) rather than the vignetting.
I have added an additional lenshood on my FA31 and I sometimes have some vignetting on 35mm. On digital, no vignetting and a better protection

I am quite interesed as well to hear more about. And ultimately, do you really make a bit of cash when you sell a print?
