Uwe,

if you're not averse to using Schneider glass instead of Zeiss, the 
Super-Angulon 40/3.5 is a wonderful lens that also has FLE, but you don't have 
to manually fiddle with an adjustment ring. It's a very compact and very sharp 
lens with no obvious distortion.

I've seen them now and again on eBay for between $2-3000 used, for the 6000 
series cameras. 

Just another p.o.v.

Thor
