Ryan, if you like the 35 FV, then lens #1 will be the 28Cron. You\'ll love it as many others have mentioned. Sharp and smooth in one package. 28 Elmarit ASPH can be a bit too contrasty, especially if you are thinking of shooting B&W film with your soon to be acquired M6 TTL or M4. Don\'t worry too much on the 50 for now, just get the 28Cron and shoot it first. I wanted to recommend the 50/1.5, but I had a strong feeling that you have decided on the 50Lux.
I have the CV 50/1.5 and love it. Its relatively cheaper and an excellent lens. Even better on the M9 as its easier to focus on FF. Bokeh can be a bit nervous sometimes but then again even the 50 preAsph or even the 35Crons can have nervous bokeh. The 0.9 didn\'t bother me but I wasn\'t the type who shoot closeup or macro work, so your situation may be different. The 1.33x crop actually helps with the 0.9MFD, so not a big issue for me. At the prices they sell used, one can certainly afford or should give it a try. Focusing is super smooth on my copy, even smoother than some of my other Leica glass. People who dislike this lens probably (i) think cheap = bad (ii) haven\'t tried it or (ii) already have the 50Asph or 50preAsph.
That being said, I\'ll still get the 50Lux ASPH sometime soon, then I\'ll think about the 28Cron
The only bad thing I can say is that the rendering is similar to some of the newer Leica ASPH glass, sometimes too smooth and lacks a bit of character.
I\'ll re-post some of my 50/1.5 shots posted earlier in this thread
M8
M9 (first one has nervous bokeh, you decide for yourself f its really bad)
