All the so called "off brand" Japanese LTM lenses have so far been
available in Leica Screw Mount only.  I am attracted to them because I
can use them on both my LTM bodies as well as my M bodies.

These non-Leica lenses are certainly not subsitutes for the real thing,
in my case they are only bought when the focal length I am interested in
is not offered by Leica, such as the 15mm Heliar.  Also, I do enjoy
using my LTM cameras, and no matter how much I love my Noctilux, it
won't go onto my IIIf.
