I have no personal experience with the Chinese examples. I do have some CV 
adaptors. I recommend investing in those. Maybe you can
find a used example. Since its for the wide wides, what frames it brings up 
won't be relevant. Might also mean that a cheaper
non-voigtlander example would be perfectly OK for that job. It's not like 
you couldn't afford a small focus error.

Cheers
Hoppy

I don't have the reference, but I remember someone measuring them and
they were rarely within tolerances.

I'd go with the Cosina/Voigtl?nder LTM->M adapters from
http://www.cameraquest.com

They cost 55 USD if I remember correctly.
