Dear all, I inherited several screwmount Lenses and want to try /use them on my M10M. I bought a Rayqual adapter 50/75. I’d need a second one and a 28 and a 35 as well. I saw some other brands such as K&F are much cheaper (1/3 of the price !) Do you have any experience with adapters, which brand do you advise ? Thanks a lot Didier

I am fortunate enough to have a SBOOI 50 mm Brightline Viewfinder I can attach to the mounting shoe of my Leica III (1933), however I've noticed the framing isn't always accurate(ish) – even taking the parallax lines into account. I know the SBOOI is a much later addition to the Leica line (1951) so probably wasn't intended for a 1933 camera(?) and I've read that there is a mounting shoe height difference between original Leica IIIs and later c/f/g models etc. that can cause discrepancies in framing (more than normal). So my question is: Have you also found that to be the case? If so, what are your methods for adjusting for it (if you do)? Many thanks.

I effectively ruined my hideously expensive multifocal eyeglasses with LTM-photography (Leica II & III, FED & Zorki) . A little too late, I started experimenting with various washers etc but found that most items increase the viewing distance and lead to incomplete viewfinder / rangefinder coverage, which is restricted enough with eyeglasses on classic LTMs anyway. There may be some professional solutions around, but I have come up with a low cost, dispensable item, which may not be perfect on aesthetic grounds, but works very well in the field for me. I did not bother with geometric perfection . I used a 12 mm and a 6 mm punching tool respectively, and some general adhesive cloth tape from the hardware store. My new eyeglasses will arrive next week Kind regards Mathias
