Are you committed to an M camera?  Why not buy a second hand CL and find an appropriate 21mm-equvalent lens?  

I bought a used CL as a back-up for my digital M to use when I wanted autofocus.

My experience with the Sigma 16mm f1.4 lens is that it is usable wide open, but you need to get to f4-5.6 to sharpen up overall.  And it's huge.  It also wouldn't compare to a 21mm Summicron, if that is what you're looking at on an M camera.  Depends on what your budget and photographic needs are.

 

 

Not necessarily committed, but I am fascinated by the M system and really want to use one, and think the process would be enjoyable. The CL is an interesting idea if I didn’t gel with the M. Though I think I’d enjoy any of them, just maybe not the SL
