Cameraquest Lens Adapter

[Stu W]

Does anyone have the Cameraquest lens adapter with the "rangefinder coupling" for the Leica M? I'm trying to decide if it's worth the 250 plus the cost of finders to me. I use an M3 and rarely use any lens but the 50, but sometimes I enjoy playing with my Pentax K Fisheye and wide angles. Stu

I use on of Stephen's coupled rangefinder adapters to allow Nikon F mount lenses on my Leica M.
You have to focus the rangefinder on the adapter first then match the distance scale of the lens second - so it's a two part action which becomes second nature in use. Works for me.
