Model Details

Manual focus telephoto lens made for R-mount 35mm SLR cameras introduced by Leica in 1968. Leica made two versions of this lens. This is the second version that has a convex rear element; on the first version, the element is concave. Both versions use the same body but experience minor discrepancies in engravings. It has a built-in lens hood. This lens has a 3-Cam mount. 3-Cam lenses have two sloped cams and a third stepped cam and are compatible with all Leicaflex and R-series cameras. At serial number 2771419, the filter mount changed from Series VII to E55 filters, and the lens became compatible with the Elpro 3 and 4 close-up attachments. The lens was manufactured in Canada. Metal body available in black (11211).

Leica R

Leica introduced the R system in 1964 as an alternative to their M mount rangefinders and as a response to the successful SLR systems of the time, including Nikon F and Pentax M42. The R system was produced, with some modifications, until 2009.

Most R mount lenses can be used on any R mount camera, but there are compatibility issues with both the oldest and newest lenses. Over time, Leica added features and technology to the lenses that made them incompatible.
