I just got back my first roll of Kodachromes taken with the 35/3.5 Summaron 
purchased from Sandy Ritz for $395 mint, on my M2.

Sandy mentioned the lens was 'cloudy' when I bought it and sent it to me via 
DAG who cleaned it; this was included in the price, as was remachining of 
the mount to bring up th 35mm frame in the M2.

Results are superb, with edge to edge sharpness at f/5.6 which should allow 
12x15" prints easily.
