Yes. My favourite with my M6 was the Noctilux, and is now the Summilux ASPH
35mm. However, the Noctilux has taken the place of the Summilux 75mm on my
M8, and is still the second most frequently used lens.
I have since sold the Elmarit 28mm and Summilux 75mm (the biggest mistake of
my life!) and use the Summilux 35mm and Noctilux 50mm the bulk of the time.
I also love the APO Summicron 90mm, although the framing accuracy is so-so,
and I occasionally pull out the Biogon 21mm, which is a fantastic lens as
well.
