Collapsible 50mm Summicron on R3A

[geoset]

Can anyone tell me if a Summicron 50mm collapsible lens will collapse OK on a CV R3A camera?
Thanks, Geo

This one is supposed to be okay, although it should be done slowly & carefully the first time to be sure that there's no problem & that you don't damage the shutter curtains.

I can confirm that it's OK on a CV R2A. Collapses fully.

My Summicron is a LTM model with an adapter but I don't believe there is much difference in this regard.

I can also confirm that it is ok on th R3A. I have the M-mount version.

Thanks for the help: Imight spring for one, although I really like the 40mm Nokton.
