good widefield legacy camera lenses

Good widefield lenses seem to be a hard to find.

Samyang 24mm F1.4 is good. Nikon 28mm F2.8 AIS is fairly good but corners are too weak for me. Minolta Rokkor 24mm F2.8 is also good, a bit better than the Nikon. Still not great.

Nikon 14-24 is the one of the top lenses. Zeiss 21 Distagon is another.

There is a Canon FD 20mm F2.8 and a Minolta 20mm F2.8. Anyone used either of these? They are resonable prices.

Any other suggestions?

I read somewhere Samyang is bringing out an updated version of their 14mm F2.8 to handle the distortion. Perhaps it was just a rumour.

Any other suggested widefield lenses?
Greg.
