The distance from the lens mount to the "film" in the M cameras is 27.95mm. The distance for the regular old SLR type EOS mount is 44mm. What that means is that your Leica lenses will be further away from the film than in an M body... which means you will only be able to shoot Macro type stuff..... without some form of lens in the adapter....... which may exist..... I am not sure....and ebay ( the all old things used database folk) have none listed. The other choice is if you have a Mirrorless Canon EOS body, which WILL work..... Novoflex makes an adapter, so do others.. These are available and are cheap ($10-20) to overpriced ($200 and more) ....
