The two Leica R macro lenses, the 60mm and the 100mm, are among the finest lenses ever made, regardless of system or brand.
Cheers,

The Leica Macro-Elmarit-R 60mm lens is from the Leica-R series of SLR cameras circa 1980, a system that Leica abandoned. The Olympus E-1 camera was Oly's first professional digital body, incorporating a Kodak CCD sensor which gives beautiful color rendering, though limited to 5MP. It was released around 2004. The lens and camera, with the use of a simple adapter, fit together very nicely. Though heavy, the combination delivers beautiful images.
