The 50mm Summicroon is probably the best choice if you don't absolutely need
a faster aperture.

Subject: [Leica] What lens to buy


Hello,

I just bought a 2nd hand M6 0.72 today.  I am looking to buy a 50mm lens.  I
have looked at three Elmars, 3.5, 2.8 (old lens with more shutter leaves)
and a new 2.8.  I also looked at a very heavy but lovely old Summicron
(retractable).  Which one would you guys recommend?  Any help is welcome.

Thanks
Simon
