How about APO Sonnar 135mm f2, for instance Nikon F mount lens could be used via F-M adapter from Novoflex etc. It is similar in weight & heft to R APO Elmarit 180mm. New lens at £1600 is cheaper than typical S/H APO Telyt.

 

 

Indeed, the Zeiss 135mm f/2 Apo Sonnar T* ZF.2 Lens for Nikon F Mount seems to have a stellar reputation. It's available in the US for $2122.

 

Does anyone have experience with this lens on M240 or D800/E?

I am very interested to learn more about that. Thanks.

Tried it once on photo show, used D700. From few images I have taken I think I like it.

I am not using it often but I still think it is nice to have one Tele lens in the M-lens kit.

Just yesterday I have used it when I went to the zoo on my new M (together with a 1.4x loupe). The results look very good. I find the lens also great for compressed landscape subjects. It is also -IMO-a nice compromise between speed and size.

 

Could you kindly elaborate on your "1.4x loupe". Make, photo, anything. That makes nearly 290mm. Sounds interesting. Thanks.
