It is my understanding that the 14127 is for the Leicaflex Standard while the 14167 is for the SL and SL2. Come to think of it, all Viso lenses are manual lenses anyway. The why do I bother to use the 14167 with the SL or SL2? Why can't I use the 14127? In any case, I have to use stop-down metering. Is there anything that I am missing here? Another question that I had with the 14167 was its cam. I have two 14167's which look brand-new. They have the 3rd cam. I thought they should have two cams to be used on the SL or SL2 just like the 2 cam lenses. What am I missing here? Anyway, the Hektor outfit with the 14127 worked beautifully on my SL. Thanks, David Lee
