This one has only the aperture ring (no focus) on the lens body, so peculiar to the S mount. Really a good trend though that they keep expanding their classical manual focus choices, RF and SLR. What about a version of the new Summarit 2.5 50 in LTM? I'd sure buy one. The period Elmars etc are neat and tiny and HCB like. But not comparable to the modern glass to actually take pictures with. Sorry if that sounds like blasphemy. I think the 111's are incredibly neat and jewel like. They deserve to be used.
