Really?  Don't think so -- everything I've read says they're PL mount.
Which is, I believe (having just tried to read up on it some), used in
35mm film cine cameras and other things of that grade of seriousness.
Introduced by Arri, but glommed onto by most of the industry (except
for the separate world which is Panavision).

Here's a shiny PDF: http://www.bandpro.com/309/PDF/BPLeicaBrchr-1.pdf

And now, just to make this collide with that other overheated topic...
