I just got a 90mm elmarit v1. Above photo taken with it
I usually use a 90mm summicron v1 and it is a fantastic and sharp lens. Heavy though. I’ve used it for years and it has always been reliable. The aperture shape can sometimes make for weird highlights if you stop it down.
Hmmm, the CL and CLE's 90mm lens seems to be holding up well; it's one I use rather a lot but mostly because I've had the CL for decades, compared to the M2 and its contemporary 90mm Elmarit.
I have an 85/1.9 LTM Canon but I seldom use it. When I need a longer lens than the 50mm that's usually on whatever LTM Leica I'm using I most often use a 135/3.5 Canon. With the 1:1 SHOOC viewfinder and the 1.5 magnification of the rangefinder it works a treat.
Nice tightly cropped portrait here. The MEM is definitely a handy and versitile lens. Hope you get access to a better scanner to show the quality of your shots!
