My old M lens kit was similarly mixed between Leica, Zeiss, and Voigtlander. I actually didn't have an issues with any of my Zeiss or Voitlander lenses on mirrorless cameras but my Leica's were disappointing. I was really hoping that the 24 Elmar would've worked too because it is one of the best wide angles that I've ever used on any system.Thanks for the photos, Ashwin. This thread really needs more folks to have SL cameras in hand so we get beyond all these musings and into enjoying the photos the SL can make. Ach, another five days ... ;-)
I don't know about definitively putting to rest anything, but I will certainly be testing my M-mount lenses on the SL, at least briefly. My M lens kit is a mix of old and new, Leica and Voigtländer lenses. It's already whittled down to four whose performance I like on the M-P very much (Elmar-M 24 ASPH, Summilux 35 v2, Nokton 50 (LTM), Summarit-M 75, plus M-Rokkor 90 and Hektor 135 which I use only occasionally), so they'll be the first ones I test on the SL.

If I ever buy back into Leica with a M Monochrom it'll be on my must have lens list for sure.
