happyfrost Posted July 14, 2017 Share #1 Posted July 14, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello Just bought CV 21/1.8 and this lens is great but it has one issue: there is no "click" when you fit lens to the bayonet. And I can deattach lens without pushing the button, just turn it counter-clockwise. It looks like "locking pin" on the body is slightly bigger than "locking hole" on the lens. It should be said, that I have no problem with my Leica 50mm lens. It clicks and fits perfectly. As I remember, when I tested Zeiss ZM 18/4 it also didn't "click" when attached. I have seen some topics with same problem, but all of them was about only film Leica cameras, not digital. So, I just want to understand what is the problem: lens, body or just partial incompatibility. Would be very thankful for any info and help And sorry for my english Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregm61 Posted July 14, 2017 Share #2 Posted July 14, 2017 My CV 21/1.8 locks into my M9-P and M262 with the same "click" as any other lens I own, Leica or Voigtlander. Your English is very good. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your English is very good. Thank you for your fast and useful response. I will try another CV 21/1.8 if it will click or not Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdlaing Posted July 14, 2017 Share #4 Posted July 14, 2017 Have you tried wiggling it just a little as it gets close to the notch? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otho Posted July 14, 2017 Share #5 Posted July 14, 2017 My copy CV21/1.8, bought in 2014, locks identically with typical "click" into my M240 & Sony A7R (via Novoflex LEM-NEX) as all my Leica, Zeiss and other CV lenses. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your response Have you tried wiggling it just a little as it gets close to the notch? Yes I tried, but it didn't help. Just tried to turn it counter-clockwise more strongly and lens fits properly with "click"! Finally. I was afraid to make a big effort because my Leica lens fits with "click" easily. I have deattached and then attached Voigtlander several times and now it fits easily with "click" every time as my Leica lens. Thanks for help! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
