These are Leica-thread-mount versions of the superb Bertele Biogon design of the 1930's; they are, for the most part, rather well made, inexpensive, and coated. Of course, you need an adapter ring, but machts nichts: it's a super lens and I've NEVER heard of flare problems from the Biogon! A clean answer to the problem for about $100.
