Does anyone know if the lens formula changed between the first 80/1.4 lenses produced in 1980 (#11880) and the last of the series the ROM 80/1.4 lenses (#11349)?

 

Look here post # 3 : https://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/93852-80mm-summilux-r/

 

Not optical formula, only coatings changed.

May I ask as I'm interested in this 80 or 75 summilux for my M - can't I use either with my M + EVF?

You can use either, but to use the 80/1.4 on an M as well as Live View/EVF you'll also need the R to M adapter. The 75/1.4 of course you can use without Live View/EVF - IF you can focus it wide open. I've had both (the 75 at the moment) and love them both - the 80 is much cheaper!

Also the R adapter M will add more length to an already larger barrel lens compared to the 75. 

 

Sorry, Also meant that the 80 Summilux can also be used in the M (rather than the 75) and makes it more versatile. Just very bulky.
