I now own an Elmar 50mm 3.5 in the M-Bayonet version. The same as you. But only a few samples survived till date without fogging. (But I pay twice than you)

 

I though they made more than 10,000 f/3.5 in M mount, this means it is rare compared with other Elmars but still easy to get, given people seem to prefer the /2.8, & collectors dont seem to have bitten.

I'd a prefered a LTM but did not see one as cheap.

Mine is very early in series but not noticed any fogging yet.

I have a 2.8/35 Summaron I don't need but it's the goggles version for the M3 -- works on M6 but bulky. Excellent optics and beautifully made. If you can find a Summaron without goggles this may be another option.
