Need advice on a 24mm lens for LEX

I've been looking around for a 24mm lens to round out my set. Most my lenses are Canon FD mount because its nice glass and I like that it turn like cine lenses. the problem is that I've heard the 24mm f2 vignetts something fierce on the LEX. I've also heard the Nikon 24mm is not much better. I'd go with another brand of lens if I had to. Can anyone recommend a good piece of glass?
 
Ive got a Nikon f2 24mm lens, and it does vignette but nothing too horribly. However I am shooting on a Brevis flip and that might cause a difference.
 
Some 24's do some don't.

I have a 24mm Nikkor 2.8 that does not vignette in the slightest.

This weekend I had access to a Ziess 25mm and with the same setting on my extreme the vignetting was so bad I had to switch back to my Nikkor to get the job done.
