M39 to M adapter question?

Hi,

Interesting but puzzling as the adapter/lens mount is the only thing that's moving as the lens goes in and it must be mechanical...

Hope that doesn't sound rude.

Regards, David

Thanks David; not rude at all! I am used to big old Nikons with their sturdy pins, levers and rings all over and inside the lens mount. I just couldn't figure out where Leica hid their coupling mechanism. I'll definately be taking a closer look tonight! Thanks again!

Hi,

You may have read it elsewhere but try looking at about 3 o'clock inside the lens mount and about 5, 6 or 7 mm back.

I'll wish you luck.
