Contax to LTM v Nkon S to M Amadeo adapters

[hap]

Not sure I understand Would Amadeo Contax to LTM also mount a Nikon RF lens to LTM? Could one attach a LTM/M adapter and then have both Contax and Nikon S functionality (full rangefinder coupling) on any M? (obviously with the exception of physical lens housing obstruction in film chamber)


There is a separate Amadeo Nikon RM/Leica M adapter which I would assume is fully functional but not with Contax.

The Amedeo Contax RF-to-LTM adapter will mount a Nikon RF lens but it will not focus correctly.

Similarly the Nikon adapter will mount Contax lenses but not focus accurately.

Such adapters work with LTM adapters.

I prefer the LTM Amedeo adapters because with the appropriate LTM adapter the proper frame lines will be selected.

and it offers more flexibility with inclusion of the LTM cameras.

The ones on Head Bartender webpages seem to be Contax-M OR Nikon RF-M. I don't think anything is in stock or available immediately.

thanks for the clarity.

Do you know if the Kipon Contax to L39 (bother internal and outer mount) adapter will be compatible with RF focus on Leica film cameras?
