I bought the CV 35mm f2.5 in addition to my f1.2 Nokton, which I loved, but unfortunately I broke it a bit. Going to have it fixed but still buying a v4 35mm summicron probably.
recently got an M39 Tosar Anastigmat 35mm f3.5 enlarging lens for a project. this is probably as small as it gets, makes the 35 elmar look thick and bulky!
will post a picture later.

omg, i have to get one of those miyazaki lenses, and a leica screwmount to put it on!
I know, they're hitting my 'I want' button (that Kyoei too) , and I don't own any leica mount bodies!

More on Miyazaki Tessar 35mm.
This is the kind of camera that Miyazaki takes the glass from:

There are a number of similar cameras made by Yashica or later, Kyocera, featuring this C.Z. Tessar T* 3,5/35 lens and they are available dirt cheap on ebay. So, even if Miyazaki won't have one handy, I guess, it could be obtained from ebay and furnished to Miyazaki for conversion. A bit cumbersome scenario but you get a beautiful lens in the end.

I emailed Dirk of Japan exposures, and he can help with the Miyazaki lenses. If Miyazaki has no lens in stock, Dirk offered to find a cheap or broken camera (of our choice) with lens intact to be converted
Now all I have to do is scrape up funds for it and choose which lens I want made
