I am contemplating purchasing a Summicron 35 for my CLE and wish to know whether you've tried your Summicron on your CLE ? I have read that a protective ring on the Summicron makes lens mounting difficult. As an aside, how do the Rokkor and Summicron compare ? Look forward to your reply.

After reading the roll calls, I believe this was Thomas Kachadurian: thanks for the tip, the overview was= great! = I read the digest form of the list & enjoy all the knowledge of the contributors to this list. I have certainly learned a lot of technical information about Leicas.
