If one were to buy an adaptor to fit Nikon F mount lenses onto a screw thread Leica body, would the range finder be accurate enough to then set the focus by scale on a 135mm lens? (I'm assuming it would be accurate on shorter lenses because if it isn't then it wouldn't work on the original lenses). Mind you, my 135mm f2 Nikkor is going to look pretty silly on the front of a IIIf... Oh and while I'm here, I went round all the classic shops in the Russell Square region on London today, my *word* one could do some wallet damage there, I reckon I must have see over 200 screw thread bodies. dmorton@cix.compulink.co.uk | david@cassandra.compulink.co.uk | "The loss of an old man (+44) 181 450 5459 | is like the destruction Flat 3, 11 Kingscroft Road, | of a library" Kilburn, London NW2 3QE |
