I am holding in my hand the 1984 "Photokina News" circular from Leica in which the 35/1.4 Summilux-R was announced. It says "The 35mm Summilux may be used with all Leica R and Leicaflex SL2 models." I also have the Leica Fotografie issue that describes it, and it says the same thing. Also all the books I have say the same thing. But once again, I have neither a 35/1.4 nor a Leicaflex SL2, so I could be wrong... - -Patrick
