Leica R Adapter L - a must have!
If you own a Leica SL (Type 601) and have Leica R ROM equipped lenses this adapter is a must have. The price seems high but it is like a high quality Leica lens without the glass. It is typical Leica build. The adapter automatically and correctly identifies R lenses that are ROM equipped and writes the metadata to the camera file. It also transfers the correct metadata with Leica R ROM zoom lenses throughout the zoom range (e.g., if your 35-70 R zoom is set to 45, then 45 will appear in th...

Make your photography experience more versatile with the high-quality Leica R-Adapter L. This innovative adapter is designed to enable the use of 43 different Leica R-lenses with the SL camera, expanding your photographic possibilities. From the Super-Elmarit-R 15 mm f/2.8ASPH to the Vario-Elmar-R 105 280 mm f/4.2, this adapter breathes new life into a wide range of legacy Leica lenses dating back to 1976.
The Leica R-Adapter L is more than just a bridge between your SL camera and R-lenses. It ensures that your adapted R-lens maintains its original focal length, meaning a 35 mm R-lens remains a 35 mm on the SL. This feature allows you to capture images as intended, without any compromise on quality or perspective.
While the Leica R-Adapter L cannot read the selected aperture set on the lens, it employs the same technology used with M-lenses mounted via an adapter to estimate the aperture. This ensures consistent, high-quality results every time.
Please note that this adapter is specifically compatible with the Leica SL camera. To protect your equipment, avoid mounting Leica single-lens reflex lenses manufactured before 1976 to the R-Adapter L, as this can cause damage to the mount.
With the Leica R-Adapter L, you can unlock the full potential of your Leica SL camera and R-lenses, providing you with a broader scope for creativity and precision in your photography.
