[LRflex] Re: Leica EOS Adapters

Alan,
in this case you really get what you pay for - the Novoflex adapter is 
made of  several  finely machined parts, the kind of quality you would 
expect from Leica
if they were to produce an adapter. Other members of the list have 
Cameraquest adapters or Fotodiox, I'm sure you'll be hearing from them 
soon too.
If you look on David Youngs website there are some pictures of a couple 
of adapters.
cheers

To be quite honest, I wouldn't want to pay the price that Novoflex asks 
for their adapter - I was lucky, I bought it at the last Photokina, from 
the Novoflex
booth, about 20% cheaper than rrp, and on top of that they were giving 
away 10% discount vouchers too.
