Look for a coated 135mm f/4.5 Hektor, if you want something longer than the 90mm. The later 135 f/4.0 Elmar is nice, but much more expensive. You have to focus the 135 carefully, because of its limited depth-of-field, and the relatively short base of the III's rangefinder, but it works fine.
Finding clean screw-mount Leica equipment is getting harder; you might try KEH Camera in Atlanta (www.keh.com), one of the best used camera places to do business with that I've found.
