The bayonet end of the lens tube is mounted directly onto the focusing ring instead of making it rigid first in its own focusing mount. As suggested elsewhere, you might find that the mount comes off in that its an attachment, if it is fixed you could consider investing in a good condition Elmar. A friend of mine produces superb pictures with his. Resolution is spellbinding.

I have had problems finding a lens to attach to it. It takes a small bayonet fitting that I can not match with a lens. This fitting is not the same as the m-mount or r-mount. Is there and adapter that I can obtain that allows me to use 39mm ltm lenses? If so, how can I obtain one? _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
