With all the recent discussion about EOS/Leica adapters.

Here's a selection of 3 versions, unfortunately I don't have a Cameraquest or Fotodiox as a comparison. According to what I've read and heard they are more than pretty good.

I believe Bob Shell and Zörkendorfer produce C/Y adapters too.

I wonder when Mr. K will present us with an aperture emulating adapter for Leica R to EOS ?? Now that would be useful.

Talking of CV, does anyone know of a good centre graduated filter for the 12mm Ultra-Wide? Whenthe 12 came out the filter adapter was released with the comment that a grad was soon to follow, later the filter was withdrawn as being not good enough, at least from what I heard from a couple of people close to Ringfoto here in Germany.

Cosina/Mr.K never produced a centre filter for the 12. I've adapted a Schneider LF filter I have to the purpose, which works quite well. The setup is not very aerodynamic:
