In the end I did it: just bought a Helios 44-2 58mm f/2
#3
Other legacy lenses which are cheap and pretty nice: Canon FD 50mm f1.4 (nicer bokeh and more blur), and the Canon FD 35mm f2 SSC, 1st version with concave front element and radioactive (thorium oxide in the glass mix) element. Much nicer lens than other 35mm f2 lenses (sharp, pretty nice rendering), nicer than my EF 35mm f2. 

FD lenses tend to be pretty affordable, so depending on how much an FD adapter costs, worth to look at if you don't have these focal lengths already in the native mount, or even with a focal length reducer.
