Yeah, the SL is a fine place to mount your fast M and R glass and be
able to focus precisely - and the SL M-lens adapter transmits M-lens
6-bit info to the SL (so you get correct EXIF data and the camera does
whatever vignetting and color-shift corrections are necessary).

Here's the 50mm Summilux-M ASPH on the SL:

...but the autofocus of the new SL lenses is fast and accurate.
