My ultimate 50 mm lens is a 35mm Summicron,    I am not sure  why, but I 
have 
never been in love with  a fifty.  I even like my  58 mm helios better.  
I've 
had a Summicron 50, a Summicron 50 dr, no rise  on the bond-o-meter.  I have 
a couple hammer and sickle 50's for ltm, and  none of them blow up my skirt. 
 
I even borrowed a Noctilux, because I KNEW  it would blow me away, but I was 
not in love. Give me a 35 anyday.
