        Is it possible to use the 100mm/f2.8 APO-Macro-Elmarit-R lens
        with the Leicaflex SL2? I was told that the above lens come
        in a non-ROM version as well. If this is true, can I still get
        it somewhere? I am also thinking about using the non-ROM lens with
        an R6.2 which cannot take advantage of the ROM feature. I do not
        plan to purchase the R8 so I don't really need the lens with ROM.

        Thank you in advance for the reply.

        Regards,

        Pitak

This lens has been made in a non-ROM version, with 3 cams for Leicaflex SL
and SL2.  I have one, and it works fine on my Leicaflex SL.  The ROM
feature of the lens can also be removed an the lens fitted with the
Leicaflex cams and bayonet.
