Thank you, Marvin.
Could you or someone please explain the following for me:

I have a 28-50 adapter ring, and when I use it with a
Ricoh 28mm on M6, the frames shown in the viewfinder are
for 50 and 75.
If I deliberately mount the adapter at some place before or
after I get the click sound (by the "red-dot" mount-lock),
I can get the other set of frames.  But I doubt this
is a correct way an adpter works.

Thank you in advance.
