Hi, I hope someone can help me out!
I am looking for an adapter for Leica R Rom lenses. I tried the kiwi adapter (which is apparently the same as the Kipon adapter) to mount a Leica 180mm APO Elmarit 2.8 to the Fuji x-pro1. It also didn't work for any other ROM lens available in the store. That does not work. It does work on an older APO Telyt 180mm 3.4. After scratching our (the guy in the store and me) heads, we found that there is a small difference in the various mounts of R lenses. The newer ROM lenses do not fit on a leicaflex either. The older ones do fit.
Can anyone recommend an adapter that works? Do the novoflex or fotodiox work?
your help is much appreciated.
Thanks! Peter
