I believe the 24mm Repro-Summar is in RMS (the so-called 'Royal Screw") and requires Leitz adapter 042-716.041 to fit to the UOOYW/16590 ring. And I am not certain of which 12.5mm and 50mm Photars you are speaking -- the 549017 1.9/12.5 Photar or the 549025 2.4/12.5 Photar? the 549020 2.8/50 Photar, the 549019 4/50 Photar, or the 549027 4/50 Photar? It does get confusing -- but, in short, most of these used the Royal Screw - -- but the 16590 ring needs a further adapter to fit the Photar lenses to the Belllows.
