You would have to make a helicoil to focus it and probably 'carve" out a larger lensmount in the M-body. I thought that it could become an interesting lens for 120 film - a kind of Hasselblad SWC camera with the filmback closer to the rear mount. Let me know if you manage to fit it on a M - nothing like a challenge and it would be a truly unique M lens! Tom A
