Should I sell my VC 21/4 LTM to get a VC 15/4.5 or get the M mount version?

I read many reviews again and I still go back to the 21, but the price is really keeping me want to get one. Should sell my VC 21/4 LTM to get a VC 15/4.5 or get the M mount version? I'm planning on gettinga 35 for my M2 so I'm not sure, I also know that the VC 21 is probably the best lens Voigtlander has made

how wide do you like it?? nobody cares that the 21mm lens is sharper than the 15mm lens,. most people care about content. . . . what are youy taking phtographs of??? why is a 15mm lens better or worse than a 21mm for the subjext matter you have chosen. stick to the conceptual aspects of your work not the reviews of lenses on rangefinder forum etc. . . .

True, I do mainly street shooting, sometimes landscapes. The angle of the 15mm does look somewhat appealing to me

I used a vc Ltm 15mm lent to me on a trip recently. I enjoyed it and have some images which I will likely include in my next exposition. That said it distorted a lot, vignettes a bit and wasn't especially sharp.

Personally I decided to buy a used copy of the Leica 21 3.4 asph and I couldn't be happier, or more poor
