One that is not incredibly expensive, with moderate speed, and small. Not sure where my priorities are but they all seem to have some good fans. Does anyone have a size comparison of these lenses in the collapsed position? Any of them, because I've thought about Elmars (new and old, f2.8 and f3.5), Summicrons, and Summitars. Summar, I think, is too old.
I'm leaning towards the Summitar or an M mount Summicron (seem to be cheaper in this mount than LTM). Not sure on the mount. LTM would be more versatile as I've thought about getting an LTM for a daily carry but sometimes M mount is just cheaper so I might as well use my M more.
Also a lot of people discuss the hoods/filters for the 36mm threaded lenses. Can't one just easily adopt to 39mm filters and use 39mm hoods?
