I had th= e normal for CL 40 mm Summicron-C lens and then I picked the 50 mm Summicron-M and the 2.8 Tele-Elmarit M. All worked rather well. A good, light outfit. Problems? Yes, the rangefinder wouldn=B4t stay tuned - but it was fixed= for good. Erratic exposure - the repairers said that it was impossible to adjust the shutter so that it would give consistent exposures - I seem = to remember that the 1/60 was particularly at fault. So I changed it for a= M6 and got a very good deal. But I have good memories of the CL though. Wo= uld like to try the CLE (Minolta, that is). Hope this gives you some insight.
