Thanks, Altix, for your explanations.
As for the LTM 1,5/5,8cm, I can say that the first I have got is perfectly adjusted for Leica: I have made a roll with it and two photos are in the topic. Perfect. I don't know for the other ones.

Concerning the Hexanon, Luiz, thanks for the information. But it's too new and too expensive for me...

Another exotic Sonnar here, written Sonnar 1,5 5cm Nr. 1548365 on the beauty ring. This beauty ring was later painted in black. It has the same body as the s/n 1211770. LTM 39mm, but no coupling system: certainly, it was mounted from spare parts.

Another photo, showing the lack of coupling system.
Note that this lens is perfect on my Sony A7, so correctly mounted.

Another exotic Sonnar here, written 1,5/5cm and in Contax mount:

In fact, I don't see any difference compared to those of D.H. or Altix, earlier in that thread.

I have just unscrewed the mount and found 1407/9 engraved on the barrel.

My # 1211770 has too 1407/ engraved on the barrel, but it has an LTM mout.
Certainly both belong to the batch of 1,5/6cm prototypes quoted by Thiele in his "Versuche Zeiss Ikon". Probably other lenses shown here too...
