Pros: optical quality, colors, contrast, sharpness, blur, build quality.

Cons: ergonomics

Opinion: this Summicron is yet another gift given to me by my wife. I'm thrilled! finding faults with this lens is really difficult. It reproduces very pleasing images with colors, contrast and sharpness in line with the name it bears. The images you get with this 90mm have all the "flavor and character" typical of Leica glass. The build quality is nothing less than what you expect when you buy a Leica glass. All metal and glass with a functional and sturdy built-in paralucw. The price is also on its side because it is among the least expensive of the entire Leica M range. If found used then it is a mega deal. I bought my used car in mint condition for 1100 euros! The only thing that doesn't drive me crazy about this lens is the ergonomics. The focus ring is perfectly frictioned and very pleasant to operate but, in my opinion, not positioned in the most convenient point to reach, it is narrow, it is devoid of any relief or pawl that can facilitate its use and has a very long excursion. In short, it allows you to focus very precisely but not very comfortably. Although I have counted this thing as a con, it can be considered almost ridiculous. I would therefore recommend it to everyone. It is almost impossible not to fall in love with it.

Pros: Sharpness, aberration correction, build quality, built-in lens hood.

Cons: Heavier than other m lenses with shorter focal length, price of new.

Opinion: Wonderful focal length! This lens has excellent chromatic aberration correction. I have owned a Nikon 85 f 1.4 in the past, an excellent lens that however at full aperture was afflicted by very annoying chromatic aberrations, with green or magenta halos in the contours of the images especially in the presence of light contrasts. It didn't improve in a way that meant ad f2. Here we are on another planet... Rated 10!
