The mailing list is called "Leica R club". The Visoflex was a
Frankensteinian attempt to turn a Leica rangefinder into an SLR by adding a
reflex housing to the front of the camera ("It's a lie! It's a lie!" ;).
There has never been and never will be a Visoflex for the Leica R cameras,
since they already are reflex cameras. Therefore, the visoflex has nothing
to do with the Leica R range of cameras. Therefore, please direct your
messages about this abomination to another mailing list.
Besides, the ultimate Visoflex is an R camera with either a 14127 or 14167
mounted to it.
Alternatively, on a more serious note:
