35mm 2,8 Jupiter-12 on Leica CL

[krohmie]

Question:

Will it work (LTM-Version with Leica M adapter)?

Or are there problems due to the protuding rear element?

Problems: the protruding rear element will hit the meter stalk, and maybe other stuff.

You would be better off with a Canon 35/2.8.

I try to find a cheap one.

The jupiter 8 runs for about 60 Euros ...

The Canon for about ... 😡

But i,m rally happy because I found a cheap 50cron on ebay http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200518407836

That is a very good price on the Summicron. I would be very happy with that. I've seen the Focus Mounts without optics go for $175.
