And I have several collapsibles that I would like to use on them(!). I
wonder if anyone has a list posted on the acceptable and unacceptable
collapsibles for that camera. I'd like to put a 50/3.5 Elmar or a 50/3.5
Heliar on one of them

These bodies are streets ahead of the Leica LTM bodies in usability terms -
only be very careful with collapsible lenses, at times it can jig the whole
rangefinder mechanism off. Cheers Jayanand
