Am I the only one amused by people searching for various ways to mount
non-Leica SLR lenses on their Leica Ms, when the watchword for this list
has always been "It's the glass, stupid!" followed closely by "a body is
just a box on which to mount Leica glass."

:-)

Someone asked about a Minolta ( or other  ) to LTM adapter.

I have a lot of trouble with the LTM to M adapters on my M6.  They
seemingly want to not come off the camera too easily, making the body a
LTM body, rather than a M or LTM body....

Does anyone have any secret to using the LTM-M  adapters and getting
them on and  off the bodies easily?
