@Yokosuka Mike - you can take care of that magenta side vignetting with gradient controls in Lightroom. I do that with my Skopar on the M9 and it works really well.
 
I have the M mount pancake version and use it on my M9. It has a noticeable red edge which can be removed, though. I must take some photos and post them.
 
I really like the colours and the contrast from this lens in M mount. (I should have bought the LTM when it was going here for a very good price.) Mine flares a bit in the middle of the day. I have the amazing ZM Biogon 25 but it's big and heavy by comparison. Many years ago in Queensland on holiday I had the M5, with the Voigtländer 25 and the ZM finder. Got some strange looks. But maybe only for the M5 itself. These are on the M9-P.

I took my Snapshot Skopar with me again, this time to Scotland, England, and North Wales. It's the perfect lens for castle photography and for interiors of churches and other monuments. Here's a photo of the nave of the church at the abbey on Iona, Scotland. Leica IIIc, Portra 160 @ iso 125:

I used to have Sony Nex7 and Snapshot Skopar, and it worked great w/adapter. f/5.6 and f/8 best apertures. It was a point/shoot combo and the preset-notches on the lens were perfect typically, I would buy that combo again. (gave both to friend several yrs ago)
