Hallo Zusammen, gerne würde ich neben meiner digitalen M mal wieder mit analogen Film losziehen. Ich habe noch meine alte Minolta XD7 und würde hier gerne mein Leica Glas draufschrauben. Kennt hierfür jemand einen Adapter? Ich habe auf die Schnelle nichts finden können. vielen Dank!

I recently purchased an 240 M-P and have been very happy with this camera for RF shooting with my Leica M lenses. I have many Minolta and Sony lenses that I use on a Sony A99 SLR, and was going to sell some of it because most of my shooting over the past few years has been with RF gear, mostly the Leica M5 for film and the M8 for digital. But I would like to explore the use of some of the better A-mount lenses, including a Minolta 200 2.8 AP0 lens on my M 240 with an adapter for this mount. My questions are, has anyone in the forum used the Novaflex adapter with Minolta or Sony A-mount lenses on the M240 or SL? And before I invest in some longer range Leica R lens options, do you feel the image quality with Minolta glass on Leica cameras is comparable to results obtained with Leica R glass? My main interest is in the telephoto range performance, because I have excellent M-lenses in the 21mm to 90mm range. I would be using the longer range lenses mostly for landscape/seascape photos and occasionally for environmental portraits.

I have a question about using the Konica Minolta Dimage Scan Elite 5400 II and Vuescan. When I start Vuescan it says "take the film holder out and push the "calibrate" button." And if I do, it goes through the 0-100% calibration routine over and over. I'm not sure what its supposed to be doing or if it's hanging in a loop or if it's working correctly, I never let it go; I've always stopped it after about 4 times through the routine assuming that it was just stuck. Anyone have this happen? I'm on a Macbook Pro with El Cap software.

I've been wondering if my 40mm Summicron-C lens is somehow out of alignment because it's noticeably less sharp at f/2.0 on my M8 than it is at f/2.8. However, yesterday I tested a friend's 40mm Rokkor-M and also noticed a similar drop in sharpness at f/2.0. I don't notice this on my 50mm Summicron. For those of you who shoot digital with one of these 40mm lenses, do you a difference in sharpness at f/2.0? Thanks!
