Well let me thrown my vote in for the CV 75mm Heliar. I had this lens
for a while and took some of my favorite shots with it. Then for some
really stupid reason I sold it - I still can't remember why. I think
that is my only lens-sale-regret to date. For the money you really can't
do better at that focal length (or even 90mm).

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't turn down the leica 1.4 - but I also
wouldn't pay that much.
