CV 4/21 and 4/25 do great on the GXR M too. Like the 15mm my 25mm has M39 while my 21mm Leica M mount. I prefer the handling of the 21mm, that is the M version.
Advantages of the M39 versions are smaller size and that they can be used on M39 bodies.

That CV is superb !!! Tbh I like almost all RF glass on GXR , M mount glass are a bit pricier ,so for me M39 are the real gems , I need to get something like 35mm on a crop sensor, so far I was looking at biogons ZM 25mm , its just the price that stops me , otherwise I love that lens
Here is another one on M39, Super rokkor 50mm f/2 from Chiyoko (Minolta) , nice lens I think ?

another super image taken with the Super Rokkor, thank you Scope!
haha, I thought the Super Rokkor might be more rare, I guess both are somewhat rare.
Here is the Topcor, show us your Chiyoda too

haha, I thought that your Super Rokkor was super sharp, as if the garden of the neighbor always was greener
The Topcor sure is nice

Haha, indeed its greener , I know that feeling !
My rokkor is identical to this one ,but I also have a 50mm 1.8 version , now that a rare lens , was hunting for it for almost 2 years . Not used it much yet, just a few test shots nothing else, but I already like it. Your flower pic is very nice , cant even imagine when will I ever buy a modern AF lens
btw, I think I saw your pics on MF forum

congrats on the Super Rokkor 1.8/50! Curious how the f2 and f1.8 will compare.
I just bought the 50mm module, that is a 'rather' modern AF lens. Have not been using my 28mm module more than on one outing, most likely the 50mm module will have similar fate, I simply enjoy using MF lenses more. Yes I used to be quite active at mflenses, recently, because I am using pretty much exclusively M39 lenses and the GXR M being received better here, this forum had taken it's place. Still checking out and posting at mfleses but it's even more gear focused while here better photos and more knowledge and references to famous photographers asf. are found which fits me better now.
another with the Topcor 2/50 with a M39 spacer ring:

Thank you! Those two lenses are very different in contrast and color rendering as well as in design and weight. I will try to compare them in the future. MF forum is very dangerous for me, each time I visit it , I end up looking for a particular lens I saw in there
Here is one from Staeble-Lineogon 35mm 3.5 that has the M39 fitting (most were produced for Paxete camera fitting)
P.s Your Komura 100mm lens is very nice, colors are so pleasing , If you have more samples, I would love to see them .

interesting that the two Super Rokkors are very distinct from each other! Let us know, or see, more please 
Usually I am living out of a suitcase and can only use the lenses I carry. That Komura I had bought quite recently and had taken it out only once, can show another flower pic from then. Then it got left behind but since 3 days it is with me again and I hope that I will be able to show some more soon

Andreas, your Komura has a good sharpness and unique rendering, I wonder how does it behave as a portrait lens then?
Thank you for the photographs.
benji77 , thank you for the kind words! We were walking past those huge , tall trees and I had a little luck with the light hitting from the side on that spot, it disappeared seconds after I took this shot and the scene changed dramatically , well, as you would expect really.

another great one Scope! Mexico? typoo, it must be the Heliar 15mm. amazing the lighting of the earlier one in the woods, light on the face even though the sun shines right onto his back
right, the Komura should be interesting for portraits. I have never taken 'set up' portraits but 'street' or 'impromptu' portraits only and for that I used much shorter lenses, curious if I get to give this a try
