carl zeiss 85mm f/2.8 (contax/yashica mount) is also sonnar. it can be mounted to Leica M body via adapter but there is no rangefinder coupling.

Sigh. I am very pleased to own 2 of the Nikkors listed.
Someday I will breakdown and add the 10.5cm/2.5 to complete the trio.

A Quinon 50/2 just sold on ebay for 227 euros, 286 US. I did get lucky with mine some years ago!

Added the Misuzu Kogaku Altair/Altanon 5cm f/2 which is a Tanar clone which is a Sonnar clone.

Is your condition better and with a cap? It could be worth even more!

Here's a link to a thread with photos I took recently with my Tanar 5cm F2 (yup, it's sharp):

Probably not better in a collectors point of view. I adapted mine to be able to close focus as far as the lens can. My IIf can do the same. Regular M's can't afaik. The R-D1 can't do the whole stretch either.
But I do have the original screw cap and bubble.
And the separating rear element is fixed. So I think mine must be better.

After 137 posts, we missed out the Zeiss 5cm f/2. I've added it now.

Deleted the J-11. There is some info that the Quinon is not a Sonnar:

Steinheil used the Quinon name for many fast (f1.8-f2) normal (~50mm) lenses for 35mm cameras. The ones for SLRs, including Exacta- and 42mm screw-mount lenses, are planar-type (i.e., double-Gauss). The Quinon 50mm f2 in Leica screw mount, however, is a Sonnar.
Cheers,
David
