Hey, everyone!

I am a newbie concerning the RF cameras (I have a Voigtlander Bessa R3M with Color Skopar f2.5/ 75 mm) and I have a question concerning about an adapter: I also have a Jupier8/ 50 mm and I want to use it with this Bessa camera. Which adapter should I use? I really don't get what adapter should I look for...

Thank you,
Minnie
 
As the finder frame is manually selected, it doesn't matter - UNTIL you get a camera with auto frame selector (M, ZM). Then, the 50 adapter makes sense...

Cheers,

R.
 
I already have an adapter for 50 to 75 mm.
I was looking for an adapter for Jupiter 8 to go with the R3M body.
It seems that are different (M39 for Jupier8 doesn't match the R3M body)...
 
If you have a thread mount J-8, It should have worked perfectly. If you have a Contax/Kiev bayonet mount J-8, totally different.


Assuming you have a 39mm thread mount J-8, Something is wrong with the threads on the adapter or the threads on the J-8.
 
read this just now out of coincident.
tempted by the idea of a Jupiter-8 (from my dead zorki 4) and a R3M body (saw a used one --the 250 yr silver edition-- for ~us400)

is it any good? any follow-up to this thread?
