Lhsa almost died. They have remade themselves into intl .org. Viewfinder lovely magazine. In the old days many pages were devoted to sizes and shapes. Of say mount screws. Occasionally this is useful. I just picked up a 90f2 summicron m converted at factory with glue to m. Jim lager was most helpful in how not to remove adapter for use on sm and m Great community resource New Lhsa besides being intl is also focused on new gear from Leica cv 7 artisans etc Actually using the stuff R and sm have vanished from the pages. Which is sad when you shoot them as I do I prefer the printed edition.
