Dear Doug, the lens in question has no Leicaflex flange (no 1st no 2nd), only the R flange. This was my post to them: *Dear Leicashop Team, is it possible to instal the 2nd cam to my 50mm summicron-R (2nd version E55) lens. The lens is only 3rd cam (for leica R only) and I would like to use this lens on my Leicaflex SL and my R3 without restricion. If it is possible, what is your price? Best regards, Miha Golobic* ** ** Sending the lens to the States or Canada is not an option for me (higher shipping costs, customs, long turnaround time,...)
