If my memory serves right, the longest brings up the 28/90 combination, the medium length the 50/(75) and the shortest the 35/135 combination. But you better verify this yourself by comparing the mounts of some M-lenses. If your 35mm lens brings up the 50mm frame, you just need to file down the lower edge of the above mentioned tooth by approx. 1 mm. This can be easily done. Just make sure you modify the correct tooth ;-) Best regards from Germany, Alexander > Have a favourite 35 F2 summicron in M3 mount. > > Is it easy to change to an M2 mount so that it will click up the correct > brightline on M2 and later cameras. > > I use the lense without the spectacles on my M3 and M6 but its a nuisance > to > manually hold the lever over when composing. > > Any advise would be helpful > > > regards > > > John gadsby > -- > To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html > - -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
