See the image below.

1. 90/1

2. 75/0.85

Seeing both lenses a few questions arise inmediately:
Who is the manufacturer?
I´m sure none of them was designed in Leica M Mount, so probably the RF couldn´t be operated, am I right?
If yours, do you have some test pictures?

This pictures show me that something I´ve been thinking for some time is possible at the extent of loosing the RF, it is to use M42 lenses with an adapter to Contax / Kiev mount.

The 90 has been discussed recently as one was on eBay a couple weeks ago. I believe its an projector or medical equipment lenses or something like that. And BTW, has no focusing ring.

Rodenstock XR/TV Heligons?

I know of a Repro-Nikkor also but that's 85/1 not 90/1..

Yeah, it's that Elcan 90/1 with no foucsing helicord, you use extention tubes (25m 50m Inf etc), it's in M mount; found the picture on a chinese forum.

that 75/0.85, likely to be a X Ray or TV lens with new lower barrel etc...

CV's 12mm and 15mm are in F mount, and need a F to S (nikon, also contax/kiev) and F to LTM adapter. Scale foucs Only.

I wouldn't mind a Contax RTS to Leica M adapter...
