Lets see, some of my favorite lenses would be the 100 F2 Canon in LTM, the 28 F3.5 Canon in LTM due to it's lovely small size and very good sharpness/contrast, Zeiss 50mm F1.5 Sonnar, the 15mm Heliar, 18mm Zeiss Distagon. Obviously I could go on. In the M system there are lenses to do anything you want with whatever look you are trying for. Try using a APO 250mm enlarging lens with a Viso and a bellows for interesting stuff. Cheers.
