    Pentax screw mount probably via a 42mmSM to Canon FD (planned for RED) adapter. Leica M mount most probably never, as the flange (lens to film) distance is way too short. Leica R - why not, if somebody makes a mount.

    Hi,

    There is no spinning mirror so Leica May be possible (new camera front), all depends what is in front of the sensor.

    Because they require electronics to porperly operate the iris. There may be a third party solution to this in the future.
