It can mount on Leica LTM/M but only as a macro
Not fit Leica RF system

Thank you CHings,
Looks like worth to try even it is Macro only. (Because the lens is not that expensive & I would take Macro photos as well)
The only question is how "far" the distance it is able to focus lor.

Duncan Hing,
Thanks for your sharing.
I read the "Fedka" link as well, I find that the 85mm lens is interesting as well, only it is more expensive.
For experiment, I will choose a cheaper but interesting one.

用係M機影macro 玩幾嘢就厭，投資太大不值得！
直接可買部m42 body 玩享受下m42 lens 樂趣好過！

I m afraid it ll become another big investment wor...

Leica M RF is not designed for Macro
imagine you cannot check focus (if using M8/M9 u can guess, then view LCD after shooting)
that is why history revolution to SLR, and M42 body is not expensive as well
