I recently purchased an M3 to satisfy occasional nostalgia .
It came with a 50mm Summarit 1.5, which is in pretty good condition. To the naked eye it looks very good, but it does have the usual blemishes when you hold a penlight to it - but nothing disastrous.
I understand that the Summicron f/2 is rated to be better, but my question is: by how much? If the difference is really worth it, I would get myself a Summicron (rigid, I don't care for the collapsible nor the DR with goggles).
Can anyone who has experience with both please share observations, opinion between these two?
