M-R Adapter 14127

Hello,

 

Has anyone used this? I have a small collection of Viso lenses and I wonder if I can use these on the 5D? Like this: Camera--->R/EOS adapter-----> 14127-----> Viso lenses.

 

What do you think? The lenses are 65 Elmar, 90 Elmarit head, 12,5 Hektor, 200 & 280 Telyt. I also have the OUBIO & OTZFO.

 

Thanks,

 

Gunnar

Gunnar,

 

There is no reason why the combination would not work. Since there is no auto diaphragm coupling, you will have to work stopped down but, you probably know that. You will need the OTZFO for the 65mm Elmar and 90mm Elmarit head, the OUBIO for the 125mm Hektor and the 200mm Telyt. Depending on the version of the 280mm Telyt, it will either need the OUBIO or it will mount directly into the 14127.

 

The 14127 had a diaphragm scale which simulated the set diaphragm to the original Leicaflex - this feature will of course not function on the 5D - R/EOS Adapter - 14127 Visoflex Lens combination.

 

Best,

This is a confusing thread title; the M to R adapter is of course the Leicina-R # 22228, but that would not work for a 5d-Visoflex lens.

 

Jaap,

 

I guess a matter of semantics.... M to R adapter is meant to adapt M (Visoflex) lenses to an R body, which is what a 14127 (and 14167) adapter will do.

 

The 22228 adapter could be referred to as an R to M adapter, as it is used to adapt R lenses to an M (or Leicina Special) body.

 

Main thing is, Gunnar has an answer to his query.:)

 

Best,

 

Jan

Glad you like it and I agree about the look of the combination. Strange but a bit cool.

 

The Hektor is in very nice condition:
