I have had this lens for for a long time, and when I first mounted on my M-8 it was not coupled to the rangfinder because the piece connecting the helical in the lens to the rangfinder arm was stuck (probably from lack of use). Physically moving the metal finger with the lens off the camera got it working again, and it can be focussed accurately with the eyepiece magnifier in place and extra care..
