[Leica] Leica 24-90 SL lens question

[Frank Filippone]

Why not get a Nikon flange adapter for your Leica glass, thus having the combination you want at a small cost?

See www.Leitax.com ( about $100)  or Ebay and plug in "Nikon Leica adapter" ( about $20)

Note.... if you have the 35-70 F4 ROM version, this is worth reading BEFORE you do much more......

Leitax will do the work for you , but then you must send your lens to them and pay for the mods....

Some of the Chinese replacement flanges available on EBay may or may not have this issue... it depends on the design.

I have no problem with hard stop infinity on the R 35-70/4.  The stars are perfectly sharp wide open.  Much more so than with either of my Nikon zooms focused as stated above.  Wide open they are no match for the R lens.  And I can zoom with impunity.  But I most often need something wider than 35mm than on the longer side.
