Andrea Bianchi Posted May 26, 2017 Share #1 Posted May 26, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi everyone, on my ex Dslr I loved shooting with a 28mm because of it's close focus. On the M the minimum distance is 0.7m, is there any adapter to achieve a closer distance? For example the adapter for the 90mm works with the 28 Elmarit without an evf?

luigi bertolotti Posted May 26, 2017 Share #3 Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) There is no way, I think... apart using some 3rd party 28 (*) with a native closer focus distance, with EVF : I don't know how is exactly the length of the 90mm macro adapter, but I'm almost sure that the "shortest" ring with M bayonet is the old Leitz OUFRO/16469 (not difficult to find, and chinese clones are available) Welcome, dear visitor!

But mounting onto it an Elmarit 28, set at infinity, it focuses a very little frame... about 10 cm wide, as you can see in this quickly taken picture : (EVF mandatory, of course) (*) Or the Elmarit 28 for R (30 cm min. focus) with adapter.... and EVF...

lct Posted May 28, 2017 Share #4 Posted May 28, 2017 Only way i know of is to acquire a Sony A7 body and a Voigtlander V-ME close focus adapter or same. The Summicron 28/2 can be focused from about 0.3m to intinity this way. FWIW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted May 28, 2017 Share #5 Posted May 28, 2017 BTW with the Macro-Adapter-M the Summicron 28/2 focuses even closer but cannot focus at infinity of course. EVF mandatory as Luigi said. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
