If all other lenses are good against your test body, then I would suspect 
the tabbed 50 Summicron to be the problem.

Just in case, have you tried that tabbed 50 on another body?  Are there any 
signs of looseness or play in the lens?  Sounds like the cam needs to go 
just a bit further into the body.
