I've added to my own confusion here. The 135's that I have are the 4.0/135 
Elmar, 1960 and the 4.0/135 Tele-Elmar, 1965. The optical
cells are quite different in profile when I look at them side by side. The 
Tele Elmar has one large thread and an inner smaller
thread. 
So there must be completely different mounts/adaptors????
The normal M bayonet presumably will allow fitting to the Visoflex II 
without any adapting? Presumably that would work differently
to the optical cells and their relevant adaptors?
Sorry to be dense. I'm sure it will start to make more sense when I have the 
Visoflex II in hand. I need to read a lot more on this.

Hmm,

I'm pretty sure the Hektor and Elmar use a different adapter. To make 
sure I have to dive into my literature.
