All these were with the CV 50mm f/2.5 on Fuji Reala 100:

Voigtlander lenses all seem to be sort of fixed run items, though maybe supplies will be more stable with the M mount than with the L39.

A wonderful lens. I have had mine for a couple of years.......pretty heavy for its size however....quit dense and well made!

They are all LTM. I have in mind getting one when cash flow improves. Photovillage still carries them. There; I may have blown my chance.

Chris why dont you consider old Elmar 5cm f2.8?? It is a decent lens with focusing tab. I love it on BW and the prices are ~200$ I think. It is collapsable so very compact too.

It is too modern to my taste, look at this example from my elmar:

Ride, dive, shoot.
That's a Nikon S mount version (S Skopar).
Here is the LTM version.

after nearly two months with the CV 50 2,5 I have to say it is quite a great lens, I spent two years using nearly 35mm , it is not so easy to go back to 50 mm but quite interesting
BTW I love the rendering of the lens

My black one arrived from Photo Village this morning. Nice look and feel about it. Slipped an LTM to M adaptor on and - voilà! Looking forward to using it!

The images in this thread shows that the 50/2.5 is quite an awesome lens.
Another lens that has a tab, is as sharp or sharper than this one, but may have more flare, is the 50/2.4 ltm Hexanon. I am not sure if that would come in less than a tabbed Summicron, but it would be sharper.
