I don't think that you can use other nineties on its adaptor. The macro 90(without its adaptor) focused closer than my Elmarit M. Maybe 75cm versus 1m for mine as tried casually in the Leica dealers. You might need that closer range, I think. Cheers Hoppy -----Original Message----- Subject: Re: [Leica] macro 90 on m8 I have tried a few lenses on it including a LTM 9cm Elmar. The focus is way off on all of them. Len On Nov 2, 2007, at 1:46 AM, Tom Schofield wrote: > Anyone using the macro eyes with another 90 besides the 90 > collapsible macro M?
