Hi,

I got an adapter today for the Voigtlander 50mm 3.5 heliar Nikon S Mount to Leica M and so far I am enjoying it. Here is a few pictures again from the area around my town.

Thankyou for posting these- that is a very limited production lens, reputed to be one of the sharpest ever made.

If you can- please post a picture of the lens on the adapter, I remember what it looks like - but bet a lot of people do not.

Sure I can. I have heard its one of the sharpest lenses ever made but I am not so sure on that one. I bought it with the Bessa NHS Limited Edition Set when it first came out but as I dont shot film now I have not used it in years. I got some adapters a few days ago for my Leica and for my Fuji to use my Nikon RF lenses again and they are great fun on both camera.
