"50/2.5 Color Skopar: Leica Screw Mount -- add Screw Mount adapter for perfect compatibility Leica M cameras! Compact high performance highly corrected 7 element in 6 group normal, For ANY Leica Screw Mount or Leica M mount camera! Sold Out"
Chris why dont you consider old Elmar 5cm f2.8?? It is a decent lens with focusing tab. I love it on BW and the prices are ~200$ I think. It is collapsable so very compact too.
after nearly two months with the CV 50 2,5 I have to say it is quite a great lens, I spent two years using nearly 35mm , it is not so easy to go back to 50 mm but quite interesting 🙂
My black one arrived from Photo Village this morning. Nice look and feel about it. Slipped an LTM to M adaptor on and - voilà! Looking forward to using it!
The images in this thread shows that the 50/2.5 is quite an awesome lens.
Another lens that has a tab, is as sharp or sharper than this one, but may have more flare, is the 50/2.4 ltm Hexanon. I am not sure if that would come in less than a tabbed Summicron, but it would be sharper.
