SL2 is fine, SL bodies do not allow mounting. Mine is the first generation 35 Summicron, so I assume the second will not as well.

I asked multiple times to make sure this was kosher, but apparently he gained possession although he didn't particularly want them. In any case, I picked up a Leicaflex SL kit for about half of what it was worth on the open market (even given ebay-driven depreciation). I've updated my classic camera site with information on the two: http://www.photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/Leicaflex.html http://www.photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/Lens-R.html Suggestions and fixes are more than welcome.
