Russian LTM to M Mount Adapter

[ikiru]

Has anyone tried the DVD Technik M mount adapters?


They are cheap at $35 a pop... But if they are junk , it is 35 wasted .... Thought I might pick one up with a industar 22 for a compact kit...

For just $5 more (i.e., $40), you can get a Marumi adapter from Merkle Camera. Several RFF members, including myself, can tell you that these are definitely *not* junk. Merkle Camera is located in Canada, so if you live in North America, you'll probably even end up saving $ on shipping.

yep, I bought one from them a few months back.. I wouldn't consider anything else, unless I managed to win a jen-u-whine Leitz adapter off the evil auction site for the same price

A search on the web site doesn't reveal the adaptor.

 

[JoeFriday]

true.. you gotta call them, or email them directly.. and even a few of their employees aren't aware that they have them, so you might have to inform them.. LOL

the price I paid was $38 USD with shipping

Yeah, Merkle seems to have raised their prices - the adapters were 30 USD when I ordered tham last spring, and now they are 40.

If that is the cae you might just as well rummage the *Bay for some original Leitz adapters.
