Most of the OM wides hold their own or beat the comprable Zeiss lenses, in
one or more ways. 18/3.5 OM is better than the Zeiss 18/4 at least, and
likely better than the ZE 18. Definitely cheaper and smaller too.
21/2 vs. Distagon: OM is cheaper, smaller, a stop faster, no moustache
distortion.
OM 24/2.8 vs. Zeiss 25/2.8 = advantage OM, again.
