I did not buy it, for I know I would never use it, although I do have a IIIg. I have a SOMKY-device for over thirty years - never used it either.

But... keep your SOMKY... one can never know...my one stood unused for about 12 years... collection item... then I bought M8...
... which is the easier way to have near focus (don't speak of real macro, of course) ??? I have a very clean Summicron DR, but advice is not to mount it on M8... so, now, I screw off the Cron DR head and mount it on the SOMKY ! Simple, fine, focuses & work well, easy to carry... in another thread of this section (regarding Summarons 35) I recently posted a pic taken with this combo.
