Do you > like the "rangefinder" capability of the Leicaflex? I have a Leicaflex SL and it has the best viewfinder I have seen on any SLR. I use the circle in the middle or just the whole screen, so in that respect I do not find it different from other SLRs, all the ones I have owned or tried have had some kind of focusing aid in the middle. > 2) For the 1 cam lens used on the Leicaflex, can I stick it on the R-series > cameras without breaking or cracking the bayonet or any other parts of the > cameras for the R3 to R8? Yes, aside from the metering problem you can use any Leicaflex lens on an R body. There is no damage from it.
