Karen,
You should add the 35 Summicron R as not backward compatible.  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.

While in Minnesota, I came across a man who was selling his ex-wife's 
Leicaflex SL kit out of the divorce. 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.
