Hi All,
I am now in the Market for a Solid Leica R-to-EOS mount adapter - used or
new. A list member helped me tremendously in my previously frustrating search
for Leica glass to acquire and now I need a mount adapter to use it on my 20D.
If someone has a spare adapter or has a specific one they highly reccomend, I
welcome members advice on the list and to receiving offers 'off list'.

I am looking hard at one on eBay that looks solidly built, has a lens lock
tab, and a fairly interesting exif programable AF Confirm Chip. It's $50 US
(shipped), but if I can spend less I'd prefer doing so, as long as the unit is
well built. AF Confirm would be preferable but not mandatory, I think. The ebay
listing is:
"http://cgi.ebay.com/Leica-R-Lens-Canon-EOS-Camera-Adapter-AF-Confirm_W0QQitemZ350206343385QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item5189ecb8d9&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14";
I have experience with a couple different M42-EOS adapters and know how much
difference a well thought out and well made adapter can have on the overall
ownership experience. I am aware that there is the uber pricey german adapter,
a nice one from the NY Voightlander dealer, and the russian and asian options
via ebay.
Thanks In Advance,
