M mount to screw mount converter

[THEM!]

Hello everyone! My name is Tim and I'm a cameraholic. My latest addiction is my Canon III with a 50mm 1.8. Yummy.

My question is this, I have other M mount lenses that I previously purchased that I use with a converter on my Olympus E-P1 (which I also love), is there a converter that will let me use these on my Canon III?

Happily addicted,


Tim

Welcome! As far as I know there is no M to ltm converter.

Sorry Tim, I don't think so.

Works fine the other way. I use a canon 1.8 on my CL.

Can't be done. The flange-to-film distance on an M body is 1mm less than screw-mount, precisely to allow for the use of an adapter.

Cheers,

R.

Wishful thinking I guess. Thanks for the info!
