Christian- Check with Erwin Puts' page ( help- somebody with the address!)
He pretty well covers the gamut. I get the impression that if you are a
perfectionist, and your life depends on perfection, the new Summicron is a
must- but, all things considered the older rigid Summicron is a bit better
than the collapsible ones- and the collapsible one is better than any other
brand 50 mm you are likely to find!
If the glass is clear and clean, and the price is right--go for it!
