[LRflex] Re: Novoflex and Elmarit 24mm

It sounds  like Novoflex puts in the groove that mates
with the ridge on the lens that keeps certain lenses
from mounting on a Leicaflex SL and the chinese mount
does not.  I had a late 60 macro that was R-cammed
(not 3-cam) that could not mount on my SL; I sold that
lens and bought an older 3-cam lens.  IIRC, The 24mm
is one of the wides that do mount on an SL.
