Leitz Summar 50mm, f2

My Summars came as body caps on a '30 I > II conversion, brassy '32 and the '36 chrome below.

Notable flaws:
uncoated = veiling flare and low contrast
front element cleaning marks and scratches = soft focus

Leica II + Summar
Pentax ME super + Vivitar Series 1, 70-210mm zoom/macro
TX400/Diafine

After cleaning out the internal haze...
