The Voigtlander Nokton 35mm f/1.4 is a great bargain in fast M lenses (especially if you can find one used — they depreciate significantly in my experience). I have been happy with the results I get from it, both on my M8 and my M2. The other reviewer that mentions focus shift is correct: you’ll most likely experience it. I tested for it (with a yardstick and tripod) and found it in my copy. However, I don’t worry about it much in regular shooting. Another great benefit of this lens is its compactness. It’s pretty amazingly small.

As far as other options, you could also consider the Zeiss Biogon 35mm f/2 (1 stop slower) for somewhat less than twice the price of the Nokton. I prefer the handling of the Zeiss, but I could live with the Voigtlander as my only 35mm.
