The diameter of R mount is 49mm, the A mount diameter is 50mm, the EOS mount diameter is 54mm ... so the EOS mount is 4mm larger than the A mount, but, the A mount is still 1mm larger than the R mount. You may be right that some of the R lenses may not fit into the A mount.
I don't think the guy I mentioned about has tried a lot of R lenses on the A700 because he isn't really a Leica shooter. I'll ask if he agrees to hotlink some of his pictures on the web.
