At one time, I owned the Summicron 35/2 v1 in M mount and the Summaron 35/2.8 in LTM mount.

Doing a series of careful comparison tests showed me that the Summaron was sharper at f2.8 and at least the equal of the Summicron at all other apertures.

IMO, FWIW, the Summaron is the better lens for a lot less money...

This seller seems to have a bottomless pit of superb vintage lenses in mint or near mint condition. There must be a story here...

Not sure if this left the factory as a screw mount lens, or that the detachable M-mount is simply missing...

Online I see order number 11308 is a Summicron 2.0/35mm V1, but this is marked 11308A. Would that be the correct code for a screw mount variant of this lens?

A few thousand dollars would buy an adequate alternative 35mm lens, an interesting holiday and a hell of a lot of film . . .

It is original as it focuses to 1 m.

The picture on the box shows an M mount. But that doesn't mean anything more than the factory didn't print a seperate box for a screw-mount version. Then again...
