## Description

If you have a SLR or DSLR camera and other maker/mount lenses, the Fotodiox Mount Adapters allow you to use your lenses on the film/digital camera body. Sharing lenses has some distinct advantages. Certain prime lens just can't be replaced, and you save the cost of purchase on new lenses. Fotodiox offers a range of adapter from large format to smaller format digital adapters. Adapting larger format lens to smaller format sensors (i.e: large format to medium format, medium format to 35mm, 35mm to micro 4/3) provides excellent edge-to-edge sharpness. The smaller image field helps minimize the effects of lens distortion and aberration by using the 'sweet spot' or center of the larger lens image circle.This Fotodiox lens mount adapter is made with high standard precision. The leaf spring design in the adaptor holds the lens tight to the camera body ensuring there is no play between the camera and the lens. This adapter allows all M42 lenses to fit on a Leica M SLR/DSLR camera body. The V.2 adapter is suitable for all Lenses without aperture preview control, it is NOT suitable for Pentax Takumar lens (Fotodiox V.1 adapter is made for Takumar lenses).Although the lens will fit physically, automatic diaphragm, auto-focusing, or any other functions will not operate correctly while using this adapter. In this case "stop-down mode" will need to be used when metering since the lens does not have the ability to have its aperture controlled by the camera body. You can shoot with manual mode or aperture priority mode. Infinity focusing is allowed.Compatible Cameras (including, but not limited to): Leica M3, M2, M1, M4, M5, CL, M6, MP, M7, M8, M9, Hexar RF Epson R-D1, 35mm Bessa, Cosina Voigtländer, Minolta CLE, Rollei 35 RF, Zeiss Ikon, Ricoh GXR A12 M-Mount ModuleActual product packaging and contents may differ from image shown due to packaging or product updates by manufacturer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent way to bring your vintage lenses to you Leica cameras!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well Made
*by F***N on August 15, 2013*

Well Made Item, the quality is far superior than other lesser generic products. Unfortunately, AMAZON charged me with customs duty, which in my opinion a little bit misdirected for my country's policy. Customs duty should be effective above USD 50 CIF purchase.
