21mm F2 on R-D1

[Charles D. Orze]

Hi,

I'm new to the forum. No problems with my R D1. Has anyone tried hanging an Olympus 21mm F2 with adapteer on the R D1?

I am also new to the Forum, and a couple of days ago, I posted a message about under-exposure when using the R-D1.

I am very interested in the possibility that Charles enquired about. Also, anyone successful in using Contax lenses (with the adapter) on this camera?

Not knowing that the adaptors to do this now allows rangefinder coupling

I just had an idea of using a Sigma/Tamron 14mm 2.8 Nikon lens with the abovementioned adaptor on the RD-1...

A fast wide lens much cheaper than the upcoming ZI 15mm 2.8M lens which I hear will be around $3500...

Guess one could use the 15mm-D finder or a 21mm standard finder.
