Hi!

I'm really interested if anyone have this combo and could share some samples or any other zeiss lenses with new M.

thank you!

I will in about 6 months when they get to my name on the waiting list for the M 240. ;-)

I would love to see samples of this combo as well. The shop where I am on the waiting list will let me know when I can take the demo camera for a weekend, and I will test it with my Planar, among others. Until then I am like you, hoping that others post their samples to the intertubes.

Cheers,
Rob

Slava,
I tested a demo M with my Biogon 35mm F2 a few weeks ago. I appreciate that this does not answer your question as it is a different lens but I can report that the results were very good using Zeiss glass.

Thanks Ken for the info!

I don't know why but I'm into Zeiss lenses more so I'm interested how they behave on the new M... maybe just because I just can't afford any good leica glass...

Surely you can afford "any good" Leica glass, if you can afford/seriously consider the Leica M. Regardless whether you are buying new or used, Zeiss and Voigtländer are definitely good options to Leica's offerings. But the Leica lenses are not all super expensive.
