Subject: [Leica] Best 50 mm LTM lens?
From: "Hans Pahlen" <hans.pahlen@mark.komvux.se>

I have just found a LTM Leica III (black) with an uncoated Elmar 50/3,5. In
order to get best possible image quality, I wonder what 50 mm LTM lens you
think is best. I mean earlier designs than the LTM Summicron 50.
I am thinking of the red scale Elmar 50/3,5 or maybe the Summitar 50/2,0.
Will I notice any difference at middle apertures?

Thanks for any reply!
