28mm - just checking

[back alley]

if i recall correctly, the 28 m rokkor does NOT engage the 28mm framelines on a leica m body.

i discovered this weekend that it also does not engage the 28 frameline on the zeiss ikon.

am i correct? or is something wrong with my rokkor 28?

i also notice, no matter what rear cap i try, they all refuse to stay on the back of the 28...

I used to have one. If I remember correctly the 35mm lines come up when the lens is mounted on a camera other than the CLE. So yours is normal I believe...
