Pros: Size, construction, sharpness, three-dimensionality... all.

Cons: nothing

Opinion: I'm starting out that the 50mm focal point has never been one of my favorites, but since I switched to Leica M (typ240), I'm rediscovering this focal point. Returning to the Summicron M 50mm f2, there are no words that can do justice to this lens, in my opinion among the best ever among all the focal points. Impressive sharpness all over the frame, delicate boken, remarkable microcontrasto and three-dimensionality, gradual tonal passages. I have never used a lens so optically correct, with a fantastic construction and with a recognizable timbre like the Summicron M 50mm f2. Only.

Pros: The best 50mm ever made

Cons: -

Opinion: No one has done reviews on this lens because you can not review, simply there is nothing better, Construction, yield, size, it's all flawless, you can have personal tastes that make you choose summicron of different vintages but this always remains the best 50 mm existing for 35mm cameras
