Sehr geehrter Herr Ruehl,

I see what you mean. Yes, the setup was intended 
to convert an existing 35 Summaron from thread 
mount to M3 mount. The lens in question would 
also have to have a reground cam to make the 
focussing work.

It would work as you intended, but you would have 
to remove the eyes, otherwise focussing would be 
by scale only. I guess the Snapshot Skopar (25/4) 
might work if the flange around the mount didn't 
interfere with the lens.

Tsch?ss
