The close focusing limit is frustrating with all M lenses. Great
cameras. Great glass. But that is a real draw back - particularly when
working with wides.

Folks - 

This collapsible 50 with the 21 CV in the bag "just in case" has really
become my overwhelming favorite for everyday use.  However, I must say
that the close focussing limit of 1 meter on some of the 50's can get
frustrating when you're sitting across from people at dinner and they do
something snapworthy... especially when you're bracing your elbows on
the table for slow-speed support.
