The point is that most lenses in this price range are quite good when
stopped down to F/5,6-F/8. Although I have never used the Contax 45/2, I
dare to say that the Summicron 50 is better on the two largest F/stops.
There are not many normal lenses that will reach the levels of the
Summicron 50. It is in fact one of the very best M-lenses, a "crown-jewel"
in my opinion.
