I have used my 2/8.5cm CZJ Sonnar T frequently as a medium-format enlarging
lens when the negative is too dense for my 4/80 APO-Rodagon.  It works just
fine.

Leitz marketed an adapter for Contax lenses to LTM for use on the Valoy and
Focomat in the early 1960's, OOVDM/17682.  Other adapters were available
for Finetta, Akarette, TM Exakta, Robot, Robot Royal, Diax, BM Exakta,
Prominent, Paxette, and Lordomat lenses.  These were all non-focusing
adapters.
