taikuodo Posted August 19, 2011 Share #1 Posted August 19, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hey guys... I tried to replace my R mount with an Nikon F mount. I gave up and tried putting back the R mount, but when I tighten down the screws, the aperture ring wont move. What could be the issue? I put the little ball into its socket, them put the metal ring on, then put the metal mount on, and put the metal ring over the metal mount and then put the three black shroud screws in, and then the six silver screws in. Is there a resource where I can find help with this? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ho_co Posted August 20, 2011 Share #2 Posted August 20, 2011 Maybe the folks at Leitax, since they make adapter kits to convert Leica R to Nikon and other cameras. Good luck! At least you've got the gumption to stand up and say it's your own doing! If all else fails, obviously a Leica lens specialist would be able to put it right.

lct Posted August 20, 2011 Share #3 Posted August 20, 2011 Did you check if the ball is still in the socket? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
