Hi Frank,
Thanks for your comments.
My 50 Summicron-R is, as I understand it, one of the later models with the
built-in hood. The inscription on the front is "Summicron-R 1:2/50 Leitz
Canada 2890592", which takes an E55 filter. I bought it as a KEH BGN lens,
and the exterior shows wear, but the glass appears good to my old eyes.
I bought a 60mm Macro soon after I bought the 50, and found it to be a great
lens, so the 50 got pushed aside for a couple of years. After trying to
sell the 50, with no success, I decided to try it on the E-1, and it seems a
great match. I am enjoying using it.
I also noticed the 3D appearance, but thought it might just be my old eyes.
See this example:
