I wanted to try and figure out what the fuss was about, and I ended up getting hooked by the rangefinder way of seeing and working, and by the way Leica glass (admittedly mostly newer glass than that Summaron) renders the world. * [although I believe it took a few more years for M-mount hardware to hit the market] https://leicarumors.com/2020/02/10/the-leica-m-mount-is-70-years-old-today.aspx/
