Thanks everyone for the posts which have been so helpful. I have just acquired a used 50mm Summicron and hopefully will add a 35mm Voightlander or Zeiss to this.

 

Again thanks to everyone who offered advice. Great to know that this forum is here to help!

Hope the 50 is to your taste! I'd recommend trying out the 35 1.2 voigtländer - it's heftier than the 35 1.4 leica, but has better bokeh and is still sharp with beautiful rendering. .5m minimum focal length which you can take full advantage of with live view, too. Good combo of low light, walkaround, and landscape lens.

My example produces a red edge on the M at all lens settings. It is indeed an excellent lens - on the Monochrom.

 

Ohhh, don't buy the M then :D Sure there is no other surprise hidden in your cam?

I like the Zeiss 2.8/35 on M9, though I need to expose a bit longer then the cam suggests.
