Voigtlander 75mm 1.5 and CL

I am getting a serious case of GAS. If I were to get the 75 f1.5, it would help justify me getting an M body at a future date as I already have 2 lenses for it.

LOL! I have ten M-mount lenses (from 10mm to 135mm) and the CL, M4-2 bodies. They both focus all ten of them very accurately.. 😇

My GAS is long past, but I'm thinking of a fast-ish 17 to 21mm M-mount lens as that is a very useful focal length on the APS-C format, equivalent to about 31mm FoV on a FF camera. By fast-ish, I'd like something around f/2.8 but it's looking like if I want good compatibility with the (future purchase) Pixii I'll need to stick with a Color Skopar 21mm f/4 or similar so as not to occlude the rangefinder. Of course, I could easily dismiss the Pixii and go for an M Monochrom typ 246, I suppose. 

Decisions, decisions...

The Voigtlander 75mm is amazing, on my CL and also my Monochrome, I think if you have the funds available it's a no brainer if you want a 75mm (105) then it is very capable.
