[LRflex] Hello Ed Bougas

Hi Ed.  I use the cheapest converter I could find with the focus
confirmation chip and it works as good as expected. If you plan on using
Leica lenses only, just leave it on the camera and mount and dismount your
leica lens from the converter.  If you plan on mixing lenses, I would
recommend an adapter for each lens.

 

Also, you need to get the Nikon (yes, Nikon) DK-21M eyepiece magnifier.  It
fits the EOS cameras and makes manual focusing much easier, which is helpful
even with the focus confirmation chip.  A must have for under $25.

Leica to Cannon adapter

I recently purchased a Canon 40D and would appreciate any in-put on Leica R
lens to Canon converters.  I've seen some with electrical contacts to fool
the camera, some for $30 up to $150.00.  I remember reading about them in
the past.

Also thanks David, I didn't realize all I need to do was hit reply to post
to the list.  Next I'll be setting up a site at the Leica gallery to post
shots from an upcoming trip to Egypt next month.  Hope it is as easy as
posting turned out to be.
