I had one in M mount several years ago. And, yes, for me it was the
poor man's Summilux. It had a tendency to flare rather badly when a
light source was in the picture.
The internal glass on mine ultimately went bad, and I suspect that
this may be a common failing of this model especially at this stage
of its life.
