Okay, so I got a L3 user body. A screw-in body cap. A leather eveready. A recent CLA.

No lens.

I have a fav WA on my DSLR, the Nikkor 20mm f3.5 AIS. I wonder if it would be good to go on the L3.

I assume this body will be okay for 800iso and upwards interior/ambient candids?
 
Yes, you could get the Cameraquest Nikon to LTM adapter, and scale focus the Nikkor. But you will need a 20mm finder. It will also be very big compared to a Cosina/Voigtlander 21/4 lens. Huge even.
 
You can't put a Nikon SLR lens on a Canon RF, the mounts will not couple.
The ISO quality fully depends upon the film used.

If you want a lens and are first-time RF user go to cameraquest.com and pick up a lens from Steven Gandy as it'll be fairly inexpensive...
 
Well, its just that my Nikkor is freakish sharp up close and very very flare resistant on the DSLR. I love it. It isn't real big. 52mm filter size.

I assume someone here has tried it, after all, there are a lot of us here :angel:

Don't think I'm the only one interested in at least a mini review. I haven't been on CQ site in some time, and didn't remember a LTM adapter. If the price is at all reasonable, I'd love to try my Contax 50's, and maybe add a Leica adapter and put them on the M.... Nice project for the coming year.
