Servus,, letztes Jahr bin ich durch eine Reinvestion (Scotch) und habe den Schritt zu Leica gemacht bzw vor zwei Jahren hatte ich ja schon das R-System besessen jedoch alles wieder verkauft und auch mit in die M gespielt und verliebt. Aber da mir es keine Ruhe gelassen hat war ich dann auf Suche nach alten Schätzchen und somit haben sich drei Barnacks der IIf/IIIf/IIIC den Weg zu mir gefunden auch zwei M3 DS/SS und sind nun Abwechslungsreich mit auf meinen Touren auch im Job. Quasi als EDC😁 Die ersten Filme sind belichtet wobei bei zwei'n die längeren Zeiten nicht gepasst haben also den Verkäufer angeschrieben und ohne Probleme wurden neu justiert. Und bei der IIIf war Lichteinfall somit auch angeschrieben und wurde auch ohne Probleme seinerseits erneuert. Entschleunigt unterwegs zu sein macht schon was her und einfach der Spaßeffekt zielt schon ab.

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 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

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.
