LEICA III lens options

[clicker]

I have a IIIC body and would like advice on a current manufactured 50mm lens to use. ( does not need to be Leica )
Thanks

Voigtlander Heliar LTM mount? Most current LTM lens.

perhaps Heliar 50/3.5 ? sharp and modern lens, -30's look and handling to match with Barnack. I like mine with M8.

edit: Hans was first 🙂

If you dont mind a a physically large lens then a Voigtlander Nokton 50/1.5 offers good bang for your bucks. Although they stopped making them a few years ago so they are not technically available new they do offer modern Aspherical optics at decent price S/H if thats what you are looking for.

There are several threads on the forum showing how well it performs. Try searching Nokton 50/1.5 if your interested
