[LRflex] Re: Novoflex and Elmarit 24mm

Doug,

Nice to read you clear!
Mon Ami Philippe Amard reported tat he could mount a 24mm Elmarit on his Chinese Adaptor.
It seems that Leica has patiently modified the mount of the Leica R. Not a reproach, though.
Although the samples I have produced are not too good, I feel the resuts are OKay. Probably because I love this Lens...

Correct, but not just because of the ridge on the R flange.  It also
requires more mirror clearance than the SL has, so one of the three bayonet
lugs is longer (and the corresponding space on the SL2 or R camera-side
flange is also longer) to prevent its use on the Leicaflex or SL.
