Hello again,

One last word, I have "flickered" across the images here :

Not that bad....

BTW: one of the sample of this gallery show a voigtlander lens with the RAYQUAL LM to 4/3 adapter?

It's then possible to mount Leica M lenses on a Four third camera

Cheers.


G'Mornin' Xavier!

Fascinating! I wonder if one could do this, with an old slide scanner, such as a Polaroid or Minolta? It would save having to re-gear the transport? Of course, resolution would be limited to a "mere" 4000x6000 or 24mp!

Why not? There are numerous scanning backs for various MF cameras, and they yield amazing results ... so long as you are shooting a static subject.

Leica's S1 was a scanning camera, such as this... 75mp in 1997. Those not familiar with the S1 (hence the nomenclature of the coming [?] S2) can find a photo and some comments, here: http://photo.net/leica-rangefinders-forum/00GqzV

Cheers!
