I've seen some very good results with the CZJ 20/2.8 although I've not
shot one myself. Note that both Carl Zeiss Jena and Carl Zeiss have made
M42 lenses, but they'e different companies (using the same basic
designs). If you want muti-coating, you need to go with the CZJ stuff,
as Carl Zeiss had already abandoned M42 by then.

All I can ever find is the Sonnar 135. Like I need another 135. But
I've never used any of the Zeiss M42 glass. Any opinions on them?
Keh has a handful of 85/1.8 and 1.9 lenses.

I'm thinking a Carl Zeiss Jena 20/2.8 MC Flektogon is the way to go for
now. $200-ish on eBay. And Super-Tak 85/1.9's are not too much more. but
I can be a real snob about glass in some cases (I'm a little hesitant to
buy russian glass, poor QC).
