[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I own a three cam R 50/1.4 and R 80/1.4 and both fit on my SL. My R 80/1.4 is from the early 1980s. After that, the Leicaflex/SL cams were dropped. And according to the Leica service websitem, they cannot be re-fitted. The SL screen is bright and combined with either 50 or 80 Summilux you get one of the most pleasing SLR-lens combos ever. It is nice to use the entire screen for focussing. Set to ASA400 and f1.4 the light meter shows 1/30s as the slowest speed. A more sensitive meter would be nice, but it works for me. After all, my SL (with a small near the right straplug) was one of my greatest Leica bargains. Hans-Peter
