  I'll stand up for Canon rangefinder lenses as being among the best
performers for the price in Leica screwmount.  The late, black lenses,
such as 35/1.5, 50/1.4, 85/1.8, and 100/2.0 are particularly good, and
will cost you about $200/piece in excellent condition.  The dirt-cheap
50/1.8's of all vintages seem to be very respectable as well.  There
are also exotics like the 19/3.5, 50/0.95, and 85/1.5, but these seem
to be climbing up to the $600 range.
