The Leica 100mm f/2.8 APO-Macro-Elmarit-R can be used on the Leica M Type 240 with the Leica R to Leica M adapter R-Adapter M.
Which brings uncompromised macro photography to the M user for the first time: no parallax, no compositional guesswork with crude frame lines, no focusing errors: the Live View feature using the EVF solves all.
For this test, I set up a scene with a range of highly saturated color. The lens and the sensor acquit themselves in a sensational way, and I show the usual Retina grade images and crops from f/2.8 through f/16.
