Great Lens - as good as any Leica 50mm I used on film m3

50mm DR Summicron

I have a vintage DR Summicron for my M3.  Not only can I not use it on my Fuji, I can't use it on any digital Leica.  However, I can use my Canadian 90mm f2 Summicron, which gives lovely bokeh.  It works well from f4 up, OK at f2.8 but is soft and has a lot of CA at f2.

I haven't shot with the Fuji 35 mm f2, but I shot with the 23mm and really liked it.
