There seems to be no poll option for 'none' ? That isn't due to any percieved quality problem, just that I have already acquired Leitz and Jupiter lenses that do what I want.

Which is not to say that I haven't considered the CV super-wides recently. Who knows what might arrive in the next month or so ?
 
I was looking at the poll results and noticed that I entered three lenses. 50mm Nokton, 28mm Ultron and 90mm Apo Lanthar. A year or so on those are gone and have been replaced with the 15mm Heliar, the 35mm Nokton and the 75mm f2.5. I don't actually use the 75mm much at all but I NEVER used the 90mm Apo Lanthar. The 15mm Heliar and the 35mm Nokton get used constantly!

Both are excellent on film bodies and on my M8.
 
4/21 M
4/25 LTM

I don't use them very often, but especially the 25mm Skopar is a very good lens.
The 21mm Skopar is good, too but it has to be stopped down to f8. (At least mine)

B.
 
I am still at one CV lens: 25mm/4 no RF coupling. I am not disappointed at all. It gave me confidence to consider other CV lenses.
 
21/4 LTM and 40/1.4.

The 21 is my walk-around lens. It's flawless stopped down and still very nice at f/4.
The 40 is pretty much a dream to use in low-light situations.
 
I've got 4. The 21/4, the 28/1.9. the 50/1.5, and the 75/2.5. I use the 21 and the 50. The 28 gets infrequent use. I will admit to using the 75 only once.
 
I finally bought a Cosina/Voigtlander lens. Before, I had Cosina Lenses and Voigtlander Lenses.

Bought the Ultron 35/1.7 from David Murphy. Sharp Lens!
 
My CV lens collection evolves.

Had the 50/1.5 Nokton and sold it.
Had the 35/2.5 Skopar classic and sold it, but with regrets.
Have the 35/1.7 Ultron, but may sell it.
Have the 28/3.5 Skopar, and never selling it.
Just bought the 35/2.5 Skopar PII, b/c I regretted selling the 35 skopar the first time.
