Doug,

Get the 35mm Summicron R!!!  I was surprised at how good this lens was.  I
liked it better than the 35 Summicron -M  It is a very sharp and contrasty
lens. The one I bought used - looked like it was used and I was worried
about its condition - until the first roll of slides came back.  Get it you
will like it.
