Rokkor MD to M adapters - rangefinder-coupled?

[AveryWagg]

A buddy of mine gave me his entire Minolta film camera setup including a number of MD lenses (200mm, 100mm, 50mm, 35mm, 24mm). However, for street photography, I enjoying using my trusty 50-year old M4 instead. Does anyone know of a rangefinder-coupled adapter that I might buy to use these Rokkor lenses on the M4? Now, I do have an adapter and it works just fine on the 35 & 24mm when I can easily zone focus. However, it's not rangefinder coupled - which would be nice when using the 100mm and 200mm..

No. There may be a coupled adapter for 50mm forthcoming from this company tho, more at this thread: The Moment We Have All Been Waiting For? Or Not?

Bummer. Ok, thanks. I'll keep an ear out for any new developments then..

The Minolta is close enough to the Leica Focal length- what you need as an RF Cam. I hacked one, a ring epoxied to the rear of the $40 lens.
Companies such as Skyllaney will do conversions, is not cheap.
The Minolta is sharp across the center 2/3 of the image, and is great on the M8.

I have a Rokkor to LTM adapter without RF coupling. I use it with a Rokkor 21/4. No RF needed.
