I had difficulty locating a Nikon to Leica-R adapter a while back when I
wanted to use a specialist Nikkor macro lens on the 'flex. (This was pre the
100mm f4 Macro-Elmar which I acquired some years later so no disrespect to
Ernst of blessed memory). Then the brainwave: Nikon to LTM is easier to
find. Added an LTM to M adaptor and the 14127 M to R adaptor and hey presto.
No auto diaphragm but rock steady. Not the cheapest combination but viable
if you already have a 14127 or 14167 to hand.

Regards.
