Canon 50mm F1.4, wide-open on the M Monochrom. But not the one you think of.
RF coupled to 0.65m. I went on a convert SLR lens to RF coupled M-Mount some 10 years ago. Canon FL mount 50/1.4 V2.

You have several special lenses, Erik.
Maybe you should give us here some overview of each of your special lenses one day.

No, that is another lens, but looks like it. It's the number that is important, 1703XXX, 1959. Balsam separation was often a problem in the later type. I myself have one with such a problem, 18XXXXX.

Balsam separation is a problem and highly possible on all V2 summiluxes.

Yes, the early number. Most likely the design of the early lens is not by Leitz, but by Taylor, Taylor & Hobson. The collaboration between the two firms already existed in the 1920s. Zeiss was already working on the Sonnar at the time and Leitz wanted a faster lens for the Leica. That's why Leitz sought cooperation with the English firm.
