>>>If one were to buy a lens for an M6HM
to use as their ONLY lens, I assume the
consensus is that the 50mm is the best
choice since it fits nicely between wide
angle and short telephoto, Salgado and
Cartier-Bresson used it as a standard
lens, etc.

Now, how does one choose between the
Summicron and the Summilux?<<<

Nay, nay. By far the preferred "normal" lens on a Leica among real
photographers is the 35mm f/2. By far.
