How good is the Konica Hexanon 50mm f2 lens not really OT

The Tri-Elmar-M I predict will the a collector's item of the future, not only on account of its optical quality, but the brilliance of its mechanical construction.

I would not be without one.

Randolph,

There is a separate thread on the Tri-Elmar, in which I wrote my opinions about it. Like Justin, I wouldn't be without it (for outdoor use). I've had it for a year and used it quite a lot but it still looks and feels like a brand new lens.
