In other words, The R6.2 can use any of the Leica SLR lenses, including 
1-cam, 2-cam, 3-cam 'R', and 'ROM'. Using a 1-cam or 2-cam lenses will 
require stop-down metering of course. I believe that most 1- and 2-cam 
lenses can be updated to 3-cam, 3-cam 'R' lenses can have a 'ROM' chip 
added by Leica, and 'ROM' lenses can have cams added for use on Leicaflex 
SL/SL2 cameras. There are probably some exceptions, so you may want to 
discuss with a knowledgable technician first.

Does this imply that you are considering adding a Leica 'R' system?
