I picked up one for my LTM so I could round out the thread mount kit, and was quite pleased with the results. Not a good as the Summicron I use with the M, but still respectable performance, even by today's 'standards'. I found that if I used the ITDOO hood, the flare was minimal, and contrast improved, and while not as sharp as the Summicron, it was good nonetheless.
