If you want options on the long end, you may also consider getting a Kipon 2x extender. It works with most M mount lenses. You need to make sure the rare element recedes 4-5mm to prevent it from touching the glass of the extender. The extender is meant to use at the lens sharpest apertures so usually f4 or above which works fine for landscape. It will make your 50mm also a 100mm. 90mm doubles as 180mm. Something to consider.

I have the Tele-Elmar 135 and it is quite good, but it's hard to focus with the standard .72 viewfinder. I can reliably nail focus with my M3 however. It's sharp, but has gentleness to the rendering.
A really nice 90mm is the M-Rokkor f4. It is tiny, and has better coatings than the Tele-Elmarit 90. It's pretty cheap now too. And f4 is quite OK for landscape use.
