Help! Which adapter ring for LTM on R2?

[scottgee1]

Hi all;

I just bought a VC R2 from Kris and for the life of me cannot remember if it's necessary to use a specific adapter ring to mount an LTM lens on the R2.

I'm thinking that it would make a difference on a Leica M body because of the auto frame lines but does not on the R2 because it's, uh, fully manual. 😉

TIA for your help!/Scott Gardner

You're right, Scott! Doesn't make a whit of difference on the Bessas, since frame selection is manual.

But since membership here in RFF often leads to Leica M ownership, it wouldn't hurt to have the "right" adaptor, given a choice. 😀

Ah, the slippery slope to the Land Of 'M' . . .

Thanks!/ScottGee1
