Subject: Russian 20mm lens for Leica

Various Russian wide-angle lenses are being advertised for sale in the
U.K.
I've seen a new 20mm f 5.6 for sale, priced at around 240 pounds sterling,
which includes a finder & screw to M mount converter.

Has anyone experience with these lenses?

O.K. there's little point in having a M6 only to use a Russian lens on it.

However, I'm saving the pennies for a 35mm Summilux ASPH so I certainly
will not
be buying a 21mm Elmarit lens for some time so it's a case of Russian or
nothing.
