Subject: [Leica] budget m lens

I am looking for a 35mm or 50mm M lens for an M4-P. I am having a hard time selecting one from the dizzying array that's available. I have found 35 Summarons, and 50 Summicrons and Elmars in my price range, can anyone recommend one over another for general family photos/street photos? 

Also, the 35 Summarons have an "RF" after the designation...what's this?

Last, are the black finish lenses much harder to find?

Thanks,

Jim Kish
