Helimat - Really nice shots with this film. I've had ups and downs with Fomapan 400, usually downs when I've tried pushing it. Hard to say, but there have been many shots with your collapsible Summicron, where I have felt that you are getting a wider field of view than I do with my v4.
And now for a few from at work with a film I quite enjoy; Arista EDU Ultra 400. Fantastic 'affordable' B&W film. I find these affordable films like Foma, Arista and Kentmere to be excellent. No issues whatsoever and I'll pick them over TriX and HP5 because I don't get 'better' results with those films. But I do save a lot using the cheapos - in my wallet not in quality!
Actually the only one I have an issue with is Foma 400, because it really seems to be an ISO 200 film. Rated at that then everything is fine. All the current Arista films are repackaged Fomas. Yes, I forgot that I had heard/read that it was 200. I will try that as well.
Zero issues with it rated at 200. When I shot it at 400 my negs were super thin.
