Elmar M 50mm f/2.8. Distinctive, appealing character or just a lightweight?

Not a lightweight and a keeper for me.

Yes was a special lens launched in 1994 with the M6J. Became afterwards a regular lens w/o the focus knob of the M6J's though.

Am I right to assume that the M6-J version already had straight line focussing (front element does not rotate when you focus)?

I am asking since the rear part of the M6-J-version looks like the traditional version,  which had a rotating front element.

You are right as usual ;) but the rear part is not the same as you can see here.
