JBonner Posted June 12, 2007 Share #1 Posted June 12, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have a Leicaflex SL of which I am rather fond. I also have a Digilux 3 which, with adapter and x2 crop, can use the SL's lenses (the 90mm f2 summicron is stunning on the D3) A simple question: I am inclined to buy some more lenses for the the SL - will any "R" lenses fit? I'm sure I used to know the answer to this... Thank you in advance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Hi JBonner, Take a look here Leicaflex SL lenses. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
steed Posted June 12, 2007 Share #2 Posted June 12, 2007 Let's hear it for the SL! I think that the R cam has no counterpart in the SL, and that there are none of the other cams required by the body. Thus, I don't think that you can use the R lenses. Good luck John W Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejd Posted June 12, 2007 Share #3 Posted June 12, 2007 you need a two cam or three cam lens to work with the metering on the SL. Third cam lenses (which have only the R-cam and lack cams one and two) will not give the metering properly. With these you would have to use stopped-down metering. ROM lenses will not fit on an SL, I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
