Yes I'm reffering to the 35 summilux. Both the first and the second 
mount. The problem is that these lenses have a ring to protect the 
rear lens element from scratching. This ring portrudes so far into 
the CLE body that it cannot be mounted. This ring is very easily to 
remove. But then you have to be extra carefull to prevent the rear 
elemnt from scratching.
