I am very interested in people's experience with the Heliar 50mm f/2.0. Do you like the lens? What are some of its distinctive attributes? In particular, can you compare it to the Nikon mount Heliar 50mm f3.5 or 50mm f1.4 (very different lenses). Sticking with the M mount, has anyone compared the lens with the 50mm Summilux Asph or a vintage Summicron. And, for the complete oddball, how about the Rollei 40mm f2.8 Sonnar (a personal favorite). I realize this is kind of a grab bag of a question, but I am very curious to hear some real world experiences.
Thanks very much,

Recently got the Heliar 50mm f/2.0. Color is very distinct. Focuses well from .7 to infinity. Holds its own at wide open, better than my Nikkor 50mm/1.4.
