OkGodders, when you get back to New York later this year you can borrow
my K-5 while we walkabout - and I'll use your Leica while you are using
myk5 :-)

I could fit a Pentax lens on the Leica SL body with an adapter. But I sold off
all my good Pentax lenses that I would want to shoot with when I sold the K100
body.
Time has marched on. My photography today is done with the Leica M-D typ 262 or
the Light L16 most of the time.
I appreciate the PDML Annual and applaud what everyone is doing in it!

For the cost of that perhaps I could buy an adapter to put the lens on my Leica
M typ 262, but it wouldn't bring up the frames lines, or work the rangefinder
mechanism, so framing would require an accessory viewfinder (which in fact I
have for 28mm and 35mm) and I'd have to use scale focussing, so a bit
haphazard. Then there's the question of whether a Pentax film-era lens and a
Leica sensor could produce images of any technical quality worth showing...
I don't have an interchangeable-lens Fuji, so that's out.
Maybe an adapter for my Olympus E-3. The lens would become a 48-70. How would
that be on the sensor? I remember my stunning Zeiss lenses turned to shit when
I used them with a 4/3rds adapter. And there are reports of lens getting stuck.
Plus, stop-down metering. Why would I bother, really?
So, sorry mate. Ain't gonna happen.
