i saw this awhile back on TCS and still cant figure out how the guy mounted the voigt 12mm on his d40. that lens requires mirror lock up right? otherwise it would smack the mirror.

any ideas? i would love this lens if it was usable on my d40 🙂

Is this the one that was hacked to remove the mirror?

He removed the mirror and is using the viewfinder/LCD?
