I would like to buy a 35mm lens (with "eyes") for my M3 and find a
considerable price difference between the Summaron and Summicron versions.
As I am not terribly concerned about lens speed, a 3.5F would do just fine
and 3.5 Summarons are available and reasonable.  I rarely enlarge over 8x10
and shoot both B&W and color.  Does anyone have experience with both lenses?
What do you get for paying between 60 and 100% more for the Summicron??

Any help would be appreciated.

Steve
