I have one of these, converted to M-Mount, and was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a film M-Mount body that best enables it's use. It's impossible to use on my CL, difficult on the Bessa Ts (it obscures the rangefinder), my R3A has the wrong framelines (but this might be the best of what I currently have) and the R4M doesn't have (I reckon) tight enough focusing from the rangefinder to make use of the lens at f/0.95. It's a bit wide. Thoughts?
 
Leica M3 has the most accurate RF of all of them, with a 0.92x magnification. It has frame lines for 50-90-135.
 
I think I'm being a dullard, the R3A does have 50mm lines. Hmmm. It's in the wrong country at the moment (at my Island Base), will need to give it a bash. Must resist tempation to buy M3 I don't need... ;-)
